One of the choices that you'll need to make when you're booking a hotel is the type of property at which you'll stay. While there are budget, family, and upscale hotels, don't overlook extended stay hotels. These properties can be highly appealing to a wide range of guests for a number of reasons. Known for their large rooms that often feature full kitchens, as well as a variety of on-site amenities such as laundry facilities, extended stay hotel rooms have some features that can make them more enticing than those that cater to guests who are staying for shorter durations.

Traveling with a significant amount of expensive camera gear means that you should always have a plan for protecting these items from theft, and a key element of doing so is staying discreet about what you're carrying in the first place.

Even though they're rarely responsible for the issue at hand, a hotel's front desk employees are often the first point of contact for a hotel guest who is annoyed about something. Whether a guest in a neighboring room was too loud or the in-room air conditioner didn't get cold enough, a hotel guest will approach the front desk with the hope of getting satisfaction about his or her complaint. When you run a hotel, you need your front desk staff to have a number of qualities, including patience, empathy, and a desire to make things right.
