I guess it depends what you're looking for. I travel mostly for work, and I want something above all easy and reliable. I'm expensing all my meals so restaurants aren't a problem. I hate the uncertainty of AirBNBs. They have greatly increased probability for booking issues, not being as described, weird dynamics with neighbors, and arbitrary cleanup/checkout processes. If I was staying with others, on my own dime, for more than a few days, then yes, the calculus does change.
