Based on that he will attempt to go there and pay for people, likely trying to decrease the price through convincing them.

That idiotic woman needs to learn to respect people smarter than her. Well, at least I totally scammed that stupid jeweler. He must have been so embarrassed to disrespect my servant that he bribed me not to leave a terrible review.
Paprika headed off with the group.

The cheap inns are basically all packed. The inns that still have spaces are on the more expensive side: there’s Amélie’s Auberge (run by a Galtan emigre, basically only has private rooms), or if you abandoned your budget entirely you could also get a private suite at The Guesthouse on the River, which is fancy enough to have benefits like ‘servants to draw and heat up a bath for you’ and so on. You could also potentially rent a month’s lodging at a tenement house, which would be more expensive in total (since basically none of them rent in shorter units than a month (though some would be willing to pro-rate since it’s already part of the way through Gozran)) but might work out cheaper on a per-night basis — they’re also charging more than they usually would, but unlike the inns they aren’t completely full. Based on your inquiries, you could get a single room for a month for sixty links/six crowns, although trying to fit the whole party in just one room would be extremely crowded.
Your diligent inquiries also turn up a few other potential options, though, some of which are competitive on price. First, the Church of Abadar has been working to find people willing to rent out space in their houses and flats on a temporary basis; this would almost certainly be more expensive on a per-day basis than the tenement house option, but might be more spacious + would probably include meals. Alternatively, the Gorumites offer barracks housing to people who dedicate themselves to Gorum, even as lay-initiates, and train with them; this is theoretically free, and in principle they even allow members of other faiths who are also willing to swear themselves to Gorum, but your interlocutor expects that they would kick you out if you weren’t spending several hours every day training with them. (This particular order only accepts adults, but all of you qualify.) Someone also suggests that you could persuade/bribe/threaten one of the innkeepers at a cheaper inn to kick their existing patrons out, and that would in fact probably work.
There’s also an abandoned/boarded up ~hospital near the outskirts of town, which as far as you know is totally unused! It was abandoned years ago after a terrible plague swept through the hospital, and people have stayed away from it since, but what’s the worst that can happen? (Well, according to the people you’re talking to, the worst that can happen is that you bring down a terrible plague on the whole town. But apart from that!)

((I swear I am not courting death, but this option really appealed me for no reason… before I had to review that thought(less opinion) with actual reason.))
((Oh, yeah. Speaking of which…))
Arius starts reading the book about Gorumite theology.
(decide between these 3 imo)
He communicates these options to the group he’s with
