Use Airbnb for Groups and Extended Stays

The Problem

Your family of 5 needs two hotel rooms at $150 each = $300/night. A whole Airbnb house is $200.

The Hack

For groups over 4 or stays over 5 nights, compare Airbnb vs hotels. Airbnbs often include: full kitchen (saves eating-out costs), multiple bedrooms, laundry, and parking.

Why It Works

Hotels charge per room. Airbnbs charge per property. A 3-bedroom house at $200/night is $67 per bedroom vs $150+ per hotel room. The kitchen alone saves $50-100/day in restaurant costs.

Pro Tips

• Groups: split the cost for per-person savings
• Extended stays: weekly and monthly discounts of 20-50%
• Kitchen access saves $50-100/day in food costs
• Read reviews carefully — look at recent ones
