This year for a similar amount per night, while I didn't get a whole house to myself, Just a two bed room, bathroom, desk, mini fridge, microwave, and coffee maker to myself. I got an actually good free breakfast every day, a pool, a gym, free room cleaning, free Internet, and there was like a mini food store next to the front-desk if I needed food in the middle of the night. Sure there are crap hotels, but if you read reviews it's not too hard to find decent ones. And there's usually no surprise extra fees. Pretty much the only issue I ran into was at one hotel, the claimed free breakfast was watered down coffee, a waffle maker, cereal, and frozen solid orange juice. Had to go out for breakfast every morning which was annoying. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago Yeah, but at a hotel, do you have to wash the dishes, change the bedsheet, take out your trash, mow the lawn, retile the roof and breastfeed the house baby while paying the same amount of more like in an Airbnb? Thought so. permalink fedilink source parent [–] TheEighthDoctor@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago (1 child) I have to eat out in a hotel, I save money by cooking in the Abnb permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Acamon@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) No idea why you're getting downvoted. Most of the time I've rented an Airbnb is because I'm looking for a homelike environment, kitchen, lounge, etc. Depending on what country I'm in sometimes it's cheaper to stay in a hotel, sometimes it's cheaper to stay in an airbnb. But they're very different experiences, so it depends what you're looking for. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] TheEighthDoctor@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago I'm getting downvoted cuz it goes against the bandwagon permalink fedilink source parent
