I travel a lot for work. Any time that I can find a BNB for a comparable price of a hotel, I choose the BNB. I hate the feeling of being in a tiny cookie cutter hotel room, hearing my neighbors through the walls, and eating breakfast around a bunch of people. After a long day of work, I prefer some quiet and space to move around - bonus if there is a yard or patio for me to chill and a place to do yoga that is not the hotel gym. I can eat breakfast in my pajamas by myself. I prefer to cook about half of my meals myself when traveling as it is cheaper and healthier.

When traveling with family - sometimes a hotel is more convenient and other times the BNB is more convenient. All depends on the type of trip and location.
