Housing and Hotels in Botswana While the Botswana-UPenn Partnership maintains flats in Botswana for student, faculty, staff and researchers working there temporarily; space is not always available for all travelers who would like or need housing. Additionally, BUP housing is shared and more akin to “dorm” living. Some visitors may prefer or need to stay in other housing.
