I'm on the same page as a lot of people here now that I travel with my wife and two young children.

What I find a little frustrating is the lack of standard terminology used for describing suites. I'm tired of studios billed as suites. "Suite" should only be used when there is a separate bedroom, not just a divider separating the living area from the bed. The latter is for the most part useless when travelling with children.

I like the certainty of a hotel over the bag of surprises that AirBnB/VRBO sometimes delivers, but it's hard to argue with the prices. When travelling with my family, I'll take a condo over a standard hotel room any day.
