It's not always necessary and sometimes I might miss out on a cute and quirky independent place that doesn't have an online presence, but the peace of mind is often worth it. Unless it is a total indulgence type of trip (which honestly has only happened for our honeymoon and a destination wedding in the Caribbean), as long as the room is clean, safe, and close to amenities I'm good to go. And free wifi never hurts ;)Danielle @ The-Lifestyle-Projecthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01694352707386909805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2304636801774028050.post-2918576716096290132014-11-25T13:22:56.903-05:002014-11-25T13:22:56.903-05:00It's always difficult when you're travelin...It's always difficult when you're traveling someone with different ideas or budget for travel.

I hope you're able to come to some sort of compromise with your BIL - or maybe stay at two different hotels!Katrina Elisabethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15083877882755665975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2304636801774028050.post-31790149860576030982014-11-25T13:18:23.177-05:002014-11-25T13:18:23.177-05:00Gah - I'm going through this process right now...Gah - I'm going through this process right now, trying to book something for Christmas in the UK; visiting bro-in-law wants something fancy and my husband and I are along your lines with safe-clean-cheap.
