Introduction to accommodation English

Rest is to take a longer journey. So no matter where we are, whether we are tired or tired, we need to find a place where we can rest and supplement our physical strength. If you have relatives or friends abroad, you are the best. If you don't have any, you 'd better book a hotel before going abroad. This not only saves the trouble of finding a vacant room temporarily, but also allows more time to visit scenic spots. Why not?

Type of accommodation/various places of accommodation

A large hotel generally has a high room charge cost, ranging from a budget of 70 US dollars per night to over 200 US dollars per five-star hotel every night, depending on the individual's budget and preferences.

Small and medium hotels belong to medium prices in principle, but there are also some places with the name of inn, but the interior is beautifully decorated, not lower than the ordinary Hotel, of course, expensive!

Most of the lodge hotels in the suburbs are located in scenic spots, and the cost is not too low.

The hotel accommodation with breakfast included breakfast. B & B is a famous consortium Hotel in the UK.

Motel is dedicated to sleep users who drive and travel, most of which are located next to the road, with poor equipment and lack of management, making accommodation costs less expensive.

Youth hostels have low fees and many countries offer such accommodation. The disadvantage in the United States is that youth hostel is generally far away from the urban area, and the transportation may not be very convenient. In some places, it will be eligible for age restrictions.
