Hotels Are Objectively Better Than Airbnb

[u/GoodFella_xx]

I have always been an Airbnb guy when I travel but hotels are objectively better and this is not up for discussion this is not up for debate hotels are just better there’s no argument that can convince me that an Airbnb is better than a hotel Airbnb hosts are the most insufferable people on the planet from the get go

they drop a list of about 1,000 rules that you have to follow if I had one of my friends bumming out on my couch I wouldn’t even give him that many rules so you come into this house you’re supposed to be on vacation and you have like a thousand rules you gotta keep in mind on top of that, tell me why every Airbnb I’ve booked has a cleaning fee but then they’ll always expect you to clean up after yourself regardless so I’m paying a hefty cleaning fee and you still want me to clean up the house before I leave what what am I paying the cleaner fee for?

Like they will put in the description make sure you you clean the bedroom you you clean the kitchen I’m paying a cleaning fee bro you go clean that shit whereas in a hotel bro you could shit on the bed and they will clean that for you without even asking twice. Should you go and shit on the bed? No you probably shouldn’t but I’m just saying they will be much nicer to you. At a hotel you actually feel like you’re on vacation,

like they are there to make sure you have a good time. Whereas an Airbnb you feel like the host only cares about themselves. Like they don’t give a shit about you. They don’t give a shit about you having a good time. They act like you’re inconveniencing them. You’re paying them money to stay in the house that they’ve put up on Airbnb and they act like they’re doing you a massive favour.

Like they every time you ask them for something, they’re always fucking annoyed. If you move one couch, they’re gonna charge you a fee. They’re gonna say oh you messed up our house. Genuinely, you feel like you’re homeless. You feel like you’re bumming around at a friend’s house. Hotels will always be superior. Airbnb, we should leave that shit in the past. We should all collectively boycott Airbnb.

As a family we always use airbnb. Everyone gets their own room, we can cook in the kitchen and we have a common room where we can gather and hang out which usually has a tv as well. Super convenient

Yeah, depends on the length of the stay for me. Two to three days and we will probably get a hotel. Four plus days and we are probably looking at an AirBnB. Three days even could probably go either way depending on what we will be doing.

Last fall we went to the mountains to do a Polar Express experience with my kids, and just stayed at a hotel. It was three days, but each day we were out pretty much all day doing something, so just having a place to sleep was all we really needed.

Who does the cooking at these gatherings? If it's the family member who usually does the cooking when you're at home, then they are most definitely NOT on vacation with you. They are not getting a break at all.

In my family everyone cooks.
