    Pricing is still relevant, at least in Europe (from my experience). I’ve done a lot of low-budget traveling with small groups of students in France this year, and AirBnB was (unfortunately) consistently and significantly less expensive than hotels.

    Also, many hotels don’t give you access to a kitchen, which really sucks if you don’t want to spend money eating out every day.

      There are probably better local websites in the countries you’re going to if you want apartments. I don’t know any in France, but they have them in other countries. Ask around. Vacation destinations are literally all apartments for rent by tourists.

          I can conveniently inform you that the equivalent thing, an “apartment hotel” in Stockholm is a lot more expensive than a hotel room, and like 5 times the price of a normal, boring Airbnb apartment. I don’t know about the rest of Sweden, but I’d assume that it’s the same everywhere here.

          EDIT: I don’t even know what I’m sorting by, but uh, sorry for a delayed reply I guess.
