Hotels. Airbnb tends to be drama. Hotels actually train people to do their jobs.

I don't need trained staff, daily cleaning etc. I need a 2+ bedroom apartment with a kitchen.

[–] BarrySix@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Fair enough. But after booking a few smelly airbnbs I went to hotels and never looked back. I'd love a kitchen, but I love a clean place with no damp smells and no suprise charges more.

I refuse to live in a room for more than a week that is my bedroom, living room. Office, etc. Airbnb gets me 1 orb2 bedroom condos or homes. I only rent non-shared.

Can you negotiate price if you stay 1 month in an hotel?

[–] BarrySix@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yes. You can always ask for a discount. You won't always get it but asking costs nothing.

I rarely book for a month at a time though. I usually book for a week or two and extended if I feel like it.

I guess my main issue will be about foods. It will be to costly to eat out 3X times per day

[–] BarrySix@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Only if you eat cooked meals at sit down places three times a day. And even if you do there are usually reasonable options about.

I would go crazy in a hotel room for a month. Do you work in your hotel room?

[–] BarrySix@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Yes. I don't really have a problem with working and sleeping in the same small room, I get that some people hate this.
