If you're traveling as 4 people or fewer and staying less than a week, just go for a hotel. Less hassle, reasonable expectation of consistency wherever you go, housekeeping and breakfast included, and no outrageous fees.

There are a lot of hotels where you can get apartment-esque amenities without the bullshit. They’ve made efforts to make hotels feel more at home and it’s nice.

The only thing missing from hotels is a private common area for groups. If they had more hotels with 2/3 bedrooms around a living space I would never airbnb again.

I saw a hotel commercial recently that was promoting the idea of using the door between rooms so people could hangout. Thought that was interesting since those doors have always felt like more of an afterthought.

I saw that in hostels.
