How I write a stay

The room

What the listing photos crop out — noise, water pressure, the view you actually get.

The money

Nightly rate, hidden fees, what's worth upgrading and what absolutely isn't.

The place

Culture notes, the food two streets away, and how to get there without the tourist tax.
