Hotel vs. Friend’s Home vs. Airbnb

Hotel vs. Friend’s Home vs. Airbnb is part of the Birthday Bash Trip Report.


Last time I went to Medellin and wrote about Hostel v. Hotel v. Friend’s Home. This time, I faced two choices: hotel vs. friend’s house. I opeted for my friend’s house because it was free and because there are not any great points redemptions offers in Medellin. As great as a house guest as anyone can be, invading someone’s personal space for more than two nights is excessive.

Next time, I will opt for Airbnb. While I will not stay in an Airbnb for Residencies (see Airbnb Long-Term? Never Again: My Shanghai Experience), I will do so for short-term Sane Asylum getaways. The price and availability for luxurious places in Medellin make it the obvious choice.
