For travel accommodations, I use Airbnb if I’m looking for a
space for a few days with a kitchen. I avoid it the first night if
I’m arriving after dark. It’s just too uncomfortable to be in a new
city after dark with luggage and not have a smooth and guaranteed
check-in process. One time I was at a pizza delivery shop in Nice
for over an hour late at night waiting for someone to let me in
across the street because they went to a concert and their car was
blocked in. I mainly used the Booking.com app for the majority of
my accommodations bookings this summer in Europe. I used Agoda as a
backup for a price check and they occasionally had a better price
or option. But for the most part, the filters on booking.com made it the easiest to
use. At the top of my list is location and I could easily sort by
distance from the train and scan the map. The common filters I used
were price range, free cancellation and property type. And when I
did need to cancel, I found it fairly straightforward.
