It's sad because AirBnB has also similarly shrunk the "suite" class of room that we as a 5 person family need. So we're forced into using AirBnB/VRBO because hotels only offer 2+2 (and most rental sites don't let you even look for 5 person rooms). Ugh.
- bastardoperator 4y agoI'm trying to book multiple(4) rooms for 9 people and most places I've searched just don't seem to support the idea of a group traveling. I don't want to call every place, I'm just trying to shop.
- dylan604 4y agoSometimes, letting professionals help is the only way. They already know the places that can accommodate your party's size, and can often get very competitive rates.
- whitemary 4y agoHiring this type of professional does not come at a "competitive rate"
- t-writescode 4y agoTravel Agents tend to be free (for the traveler), what are you talking about?
- WJW 4y agoUnless they are also free for the person renting out the place, wouldn't they simply raise the price by the cost of the travel agent?
- dylan604 4y agoSimilar to apartment locators, the "agent" is often paid by a commission from the apartment rather than by the person using the service. So this is one of those cases where you are the product.
- aetherson 4y agoNo doubt. But probably not specifically for this stay, so basically all the people who also rent this place without using a travel agent are subsidizing your use of the travel agent.
- perfmode 4y agowhere does one find a travel agent?
- t-writescode 4y agoI'm looking for one right now xD Using BBB and Yelp xD
- ptudan 4y agoJust search for 4. You're almost never going to get in trouble for sleeping 2 adults and 3 kids in a hotel room for 4.
- mc32 4y agoOften you can find that they will charge $xx per additional person, if you go over the listed figure (if you choose to declare the overage).
- itsmartapuntocm 4y agoCruise ships do this too, even if the extra person is an infant.
- late2part 4y agoMore often they will declare >N persons a 'fire safety hazard' and refuse for your safety and security. And to help them make more revenue.
- ahi 4y agoFrom personal experience, just stick the youngest on the floor
- tomcam 4y agoThat’s outrageous. You could trip over one and sprain your ankle. We just tied ours outside and told people the kids identified as dogs.
- greenhorn360 4y agoThere's an active genocide going on but you just had to go there. This would have still been funny without this tired, old, cliche of a "joke"
