I am pretty certain that being stuck inside an "included" hotel room to quarantine -- even with free room service -- is neither all that sunny nor my idea of fun. Being stuck at home sounds way better to me than possibly being stuck indoors inside a drab room for two weeks.
Well, either way, I wouldn't want to contract COVID to test the experience.

My original comment was more directed toward the content of the linked article....I mean, if one is going to write what is clearly intended to be a "cautionary" tale, one has got to be able to come up with "tales" that include far worse circumstances than symptom-free COVID, luxury hotel rooms, and free food.
