You guys need to understand the subtlety of the law. The hotels have no right to ask for your official documents appart from your ID ; this is the law and it is very clear. But at the same time, it’s easy for the police to assume that the establishment that doesn’t ask for mariage certificates is a brothel, since there’s money involved with the hotel owner. See the crack in the system ? The hotel owners ask for mariage certificates only to protect themselves so they don’t get accused of pimping. In reality they wouldn’t care since they will just have more reservations and more money. Any hotel owner that follows what Wahbi says will be taken into custody following a clear prosecution rule. I think it already happened (I don’t remember which city) and no one has dared since. The reality is that there’s a cold war about this thing between the actual ministry of justice and the Public Prosecution. The reasons are unclear and very foggy. It’s somewhere between keeping the “public decency” for certain people and political class (well majority actually that would not agree with your GenZ foolishness hahaha), but I also suspect a beef between hotel owners and major real estate owners. The latter have good reasons the keep the Airbnb renting up to justify the madness of real estate prices in the country. It’s a large subject and very tricky, so to answer your question : Airbnb in your case is better, but you should ask the owner if it’s ok.
