Now that we have an infant son, we no longer have the time to spend hours on the phone with Airbnb support, live in dangerous “ghost hotels” disguised as homes, or risk getting cancelled on last minute. Unfortunately, relying on hotels for long term stays wouldn’t work for us since we need a kitchen and laundry more than ever.
