| One option that often remains unnoticed is the possibility of renting a flat instead of staying at a hotel. The difference is that a hotel room normally will have a refrigerator that is mainly filled with expensive drinks and provides no facilities for preparing food and often no facilities for cleaning clothes. Up-to-date hotel rooms have a "bar refrigerator" that is equipped with sensors and is fully filled with things that you have to pay for, if any of them is moved. A flat will ideally have a refrigerator which is entirely empty for you to store foodstuffs. It will have a minimally supplied kitchen where you can cook. Some flats for rent are supplied with a washing machine and a dryer, but it is commonplace to have communal facilities for washing clothes. In any case, there will be some alternative for doing the washing that does not cost much. Another considerable difference that is commonly seen between rented accommodation and hotels is the layout which is largely determined by the size. A rented flat may have walls partially or fully dividing it into separate rooms. Some flats may have two bedrooms, a kitchen, and a dining area separated from the rest of the apartment. This enables a tenant to organise business meetings in the lounge area while someone is sleeping in one of the bedrooms. There is a significant difference between having a business meeting in the lounge area of a rented flat and in a hotel room. Flats frequently are normally a lot more expensive than hotel rooms, because they are much more spacious because of the kitchen area. But by cooking a meal in the kitchen of a rented flat you can save a great deal of money on restaurants and mini-bar drinks. Another way to save some money is to use some inflatable camping beds for 4 tenants to sleep in a rented flat which is designed for two. However, landlords try and discourage this by only having enough cutlery for two people and not having extra blankets, towels, etc. On the contrary, hotel rooms frequently have an over-supply of towels and blankets, because it is easier to fully stock every closet than to handle customers' requests at night.
