On average, I travel to about five countries a year (some I’ve visited previously, and others are new). \u00a0In most of these cases, I will be in one city for multiple nights. \u00a0With so many options and categories of places to stay, how do I make a decision? \u00a0What goes into my thought process? \u00a0While everyone is a bit different, I’ll walk you through how I come to a decision (and would love to hear about what goes into yours). \u00a0Of course, if I’m sincere, the first thing I look at in a city is to see if there are any review opportunities available. \u00a0I freelance for a company (providing coverage of hotels), so this is usually my first move, because free is always better than paid. \u00a0\ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
However, in the event there is not a free place to stay (or friends to crash with), this is what goes through my mind:<\/p>\n
So, where are you staying next? \u00a0How did you come to that decision?<\/p>\n
