[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We used rentals when are kids were little and we wanted to put them down for naps and early bedtimes. But we’ve since stopped for 2 main reasons:

I don’t like the checkout “procedures” often required and I don’t like the cancellation policies. I also don’t want to be charged if they think a hand towel is missing or I put the stain on the couch that was already there. Now that my kids are older, hotels are much less stressful. [/quote]

Except for the time our dog ate the owner's antique chair, we've never been charged for anything. Dozens of experiences. The cancellation policies vary by rental. Choose one you're comfortable with.[/quote]

I've never seen any that have the 24-72 hour cancellation policies that hotels have. And I haven't been charged for anything either, but plenty of places have threatening messages about potential charges. And the varying degrees of chores on departure day. Plus like another PP we are deep into travel points now. [/quote]

I guess it depends on what you're comfortable with. I have four Airbnb reservations on Portugal later this year. All with full refund if cancelled five or more days in advance, partial refund if cancelled day of.

I guess I feel like of I'm flying across an ocean for a vacation, I'm pretty confident my lodging needs aren't going to chant if less than five days out from the trip, or on most cases already on the trip.[/quote]
