How to choose where to sleep. A stay is marked first-hand only if the author stayed there.
Where you sleep shapes a trip more than most people expect. These guides look at how to choose a stay: which neighbourhood suits the kind of trip you want, what different types of stay tend to offer, and which questions are worth asking before you commit.
One rule runs through every page. A stay is described as first-hand only if the author stayed there. Anything else is research from published sources, and it reads that way. We never invent a stay or a review. The editorial policy explains the standard in full.
Guides on this line are researched with AI help, then checked by a human editor before they are published. How we check facts.
