I stayed at an Airbnb in Dallas. On the 3rd day, apartment management came to the door and said the guy owed them two months of rent and it wasn’t allowed to be an Airbnb. Was told by them to leave. Airbnb said I’d get a refund. Then a week later they said they never said that, refused to give me the recorded call and screwed me out of $2000. I will never use their service again.
I've always enjoyed going to hotels. There's a sense of excitement and grandeur that an airbnb cannot replicate. A hotel has you navigate your way up stairs or on an elevator, wade through seemingly endless corridors and find your room. Sometimes if you're lucky the hotel has a pool, and you can get breakfast (hotel toast is really good for no particular reason). You can get some poor ones, but ultimately hotels are one of the best ways to spend the night away from home, and I hope they never disappear.
I don't think they'll ever go anywhere. For one the traveling business people use them all the time, plus regular people like you and me would much rather stay at a reliable hotel than some random guy's house.
"A hotel has you navigate your way up stairs or on an elevator, wade through seemingly endless corridors and find your room" ... no, this is not a hotel. In a real hotel, a bellman dressed like a four star General will show you the way to your room, carrying your luggage in a golden oversized luggage cart...

I work in a hotel, and as someone who has never rented out a room on air bnb, I can tell you that the hotel is the better option as the person in charge of all the rooms. There is a wonderful team of ladies who clean everything, I don't have to feel guilty about the prices because I didn't set them, and if something breaks or someone gets hurt, it's not my problem, that's the manager's job

lol I’m about to ruin hotel pools for you. Chlorine doesn’t smell like anything on its own. When chlorine mixes with stuff like sweat, body oils, and pee, it turns into chloramines. Chloramine is what smells like classic “pool smell” and burns your eyes, not regular chlorine in clean water. So when you get hit in the face by an obnoxious amount of “pool smell,” stay away.

Beautiful view on the river, every room meticulously designed with a different but subtle theme, and gorgeous walking trails on the multiacre property.

Huh! Any TH-camr is a businessman and sponsorships are the biggest revenue stream out there. It is ALWAYS the choice of the consumer if they want to buy the product being sold. It is the responsibility of the consumer to do their own research and not commit to any product or person solely based on any advertisement
I'm in one right now. It has one of those interior courtyard pools with tropical plants and an atrium. I'm heading down there soon to smell the nostalgic chlorine. It's my favorite smell.

I haaaate hotels. The beds are too soft and fuck up my back, my sister steals the blanket and stops me from sleeping and my parents cpap machine keeps me up all night. I slept a full 12 hours after getting back once because I couldn’t sleep so badly
Honestly he’s telling facts in a way I can actually listen to. I’d definitely listen to Tugg rambling about airbnb and hotels than watch a documentary on it.
Dude, my family owns an Airbnb spot here in Brazil, and let me tell you, ain't nobody doing the mopping for us. The other day, there was p**p on top of the CLOSED TOILET. If I have to clean that apartment one one more time, I swear to God, I myself will become an advocate for hotels.
I work construction and do a lot of work for AirBnB owners and landlords in general and see some equally crazy shit. Once saw one that had thousands in damages from a few guys over like a weekend and had a few customers who had guests that used the COVID eviction moratorium as an excuse to not pay anything and not leave until they're forced out. Some tenants can be super easy, they just live in your building and give you money, but some are maliciously stupid.
So if there were sufficient housing supply and it was understood that tenants had options, society would be way more on landlords side than it already is.
Yeah it's similar in Argentina, we do the cleaning ourselves lol. My mom sometimes pays a person to do it if it's too nasty and we don't have the time, but usually it's not necessary.
If you want to try a DoubleTree cookie, just walk in to a DoubleTree and ask for one at the front desk. You don't need to be a guest or anything, you can just ask for one.
I guess the freebies are a hilton thing, where I work we do the same thing for champagne, half the people coming in are going for the bar but we offer to everyone anyway
I live in Las Vegas (from age 10) and finally can afford to do cool shit. I just found out about the Tesla Loop (I don’t know WHEN TF they built it!) and now, FREE CHAMPAGNE at Hilton? Our old Hilton closed years ago…so I don’t even know where to test this out. But I WILL figure it out. I just love walking around a hotel with champagne in my hand. It is hilarious to me. Thanks!
Fun fact about the Trump hotel in Las Vegas: It was supposed to be a casino, but Trump's filed for bankruptcy in the past, which disqualifies you from ever opening a casino. (Edited for clarity)
I "stayed" there in Amsterdam and can tell you that it is eerily soundproofed and has a small ass door to get through the lift. No lobby and you have to access a safe for the keycards like you are in Mission Impossible. Also there are stairs that look straight the fuck down (150 feet, 10 stories) between the deck where the lift stops in this duplex and the rooms. Once seeing this panic attack out of the elevator I said bye to $600 went back down not trying lose my suitcase to gravity and small stairs. The sole concierge said if I saw the hot tub on top of crane that I would change my mind. The Mystique is a beautifully crafted room but cramped and between the access points and the height it is a straightforward fucking terror trip.
@TJ0564 of course! Tbf, i realized he said the double tree, and I worked at the Hilton Garden Inn. We had like mini versions that were complementary at the front desk, and they were sooooo good.
10:14 this is literally just like whenever your dad just brings up one thing about their lore he’ll only mention once then never again when you ask him about it
I totally freaking agree. Why take a vacation to escape your problems but then make one for yourself instead of a hotel. Hotels are great. All the showers work, they got big elevators, and they have restaurants. Literally what more could you ask for
You should try being newlywed. 😊 Hotels go above and beyond to make your honeymoon the absolute best. Special note in your reservation? Expect a welcome gift basket. Last minute reservation? Casually drop you're looking for a romantic spot for dinner because on your honeymoon and boom--free upgrade. 💘
An Airbnb is basically living in your parents house when they’re away, except YOU pay to stay there. That’s the best way I describe it, cause the one Airbnb I stayed at had little notes on what you can and can’t do. Which was basically what my parents did when they were away on a 10 hour trip to who-fuckin-knows-where. Also, in Badaga Bay (or something, IDK) there is a hotel and it’s basically an Airbnb. Because the town is so small/compact, the “rooms” are tiny houses scattered by the reception building (which is the same size as the “rooms”). You have the room size of an Airbnb with the leniency and cleaning service of the hotel.
It depends on the AirBnB. I booked one AirBnB and the owner messaged me to say that the room I originally booked had house rules including no alcohol on site, and also had men currently staying in that apartment. He asked if I wanted to consider a different location (which I did). Overall, he was helpful and the room I booked was great. I have never encountered unreasonable house rules at any property I stayed at.
Airbnb actually made ads saying that its better to stay at an airbnb because when you go on vaca, because you can be with your friends when in a hotel you're apart. THATS THE IDEA!!! YOU CAN HAVE PRIVACY WHEN YOU'RE GETTING READY FOR BED!!!
I work as a housekeeper and listen to podcasts while I clean. I've heard commercials for Airbnb and they make no sense. I'm literally answering every bullet point they mention with, "you can do that in a hotel". Like everyone getting their own room and bathroom and being able to have grandparents around. We have several suites that are basically apartments. One of them has 2 queen size pull out couches! What house has a bathroom per bedroom? That's only something you can find in hotels. Airbnb has essentially taken over a nearby county I used to work in. Most of the people who work there now can't afford to live there. Anyone looking to rent a place can only find accommodation for a few months over the winter because it's outside tourist season. They gotta be out when it's needed again for Airbnb.
I've been to a fair few hotels that don't have bathrooms in the rooms, and hotels are extremely overpriced for what you get. That is how services like Airbnb and vrbo have been able to gobble up so much of the hospitality industry so fast, I can stay at an entire house with free parking for a few weeks paying about $15-$20 a day, or I can spend a week in a hotel paying $100-$500 a day. On only extremely rare occasions have I found a hotel or even a motel or hostal room for under $80 a day.
Yes, but you pay a lot more for them, in many cases. I just stayed in an AirBnB that was a full size apartment, in a large city, conveniently located with public transportation on the same block, for about $100 a night, including taxes and fees. A hotel would have changed me double, at least, for identical accommodations.
I find AirBnB has its perks. Parking is a big one for me - I despise having to park far away or paying for parking, but also cooking. I love being able to freely cook in a kitchen and I will not stay anywhere I cannot make my own food.
I know you gotta make money but honestly I wouldn’t do draft kings. Gambling is a nasty addiction that online casinos do their utmost to encourage. Draft Kings is particularly despicable. I don’t have a problem with gambling as recreation, but given the dangers, I think it’s wrong to tell people how fun it is to play with fire. If you can, just avoid their sponsorship. There’s plenty of sponsors to choose from.
I'm happy to see someone agree with me on this. I would never ever trust a stranger in my house for what little an AirBnB has to charge to be a better option than even the worst hotel.
Every AirBnB I’ve ever used was way cheaper than the local hotels, and far nicer with far more room. Often in better locations as well. They also never made me clean other than basic decency (like washing my dishes). Some of them are aaaabsolutely ludicrous, don’t get me wrong. Especially in the States. But abroad they’re pretty solid.
I had no idea there was someone else out there that loved hotels as much as me. Last year I took a vacation to a Hyatt. Like legit didn’t even leave the room. It was amazing
About a couple of months ago, my family and I had a staycation at a hotel in the town we live in. IT WAS THE BEST, there was a pool and you know we swam as much as we could, I had endless cups of cocoa,(not a fan of coffee) we stayed in and watched TV, and the FREE BREAKFAST EVERY MORNING??? Yes!!
he right my dad was in an airbnb and complianed about all the water damage but saved them a lot of money by fixing the washing machine for free and they got mad at him
As someone who has literally grown up in the travel and tourism industry (father worked maintenance, mother worked front desk, sister works as both front desk and bartender, I work as a lifeguard at a water park) I am pro-hotel/motel and explicitly anti-Airbnb
I like the middle, you can find apartment complexes that rent out furnished rooms so you can have a hotel room with a proper kitchen, washer, dryer, etc.
And as a woman who travels alone sometimes, I accually dare go into a hotel. With Airbnb it feels like you are booking your own horror movie adventure.
my friend runs an Air BNB, guests don't clean anything, there is a $150 cleaning charge added to every rental, guests just leave with garbage everywhere, food on the walls, dumps on the floor, and kitchen faucets thrown out the window.
Yea i have seen some people completely destroy the house. Its super sad. And theyll get their account blocked but how easy is it to just make a new one or use someone elses? Ive seen celebrities leave air bnbs in some of the worst conditions ever.
Love the video, hate that you’re promoting gambling! These sites are extremely predatory, and your audience trusts you. Telling people to gamble responsibly isn’t good enough, I really hope you reconsider working with Draft Kings again (or any of the million gambling sites that I can’t seem to escape for that matter).
dude. you are an absolute legend. i love your videos. so glad you started doing this, probably with some doubts, im sure. but dammit, you're here. and so are we. and its great!
I’ve never been bombarded with chore notes at an Airbnb. I also only used the app to rent poorly-built plywood rooms in frightening hovels for $35 a night.
AirBnB was dope when I wanted to save money when visiting somewhere. I remember it being a cheaper option but now with all the bullshit fees it's not worth it. Hotels for life, baby.
Not even 2 minutes in, I'm sold. Hotels are magical places. When you're in a hotel, you know you aren't home, but you're secure, comfortable. And at least in my experience, that bed will leave you so well rested
The last time I took my family on vacation a lot of our vacation plans fell through which included missing show times, dinners, events, and rentals we all had planned. It was still a great vacation because we spent every night in our hotel making cups of coffee with the little coffee machine they give you in the rooms. We would constantly go back and forth from lobby to room with more coffee and creamers. We watched random cartoons (my kid sister was with us so we had to watch stuff tailored to a younger audience.), basked in the nighttime seabreeze on the room's patio, and my brother and I played video games on my laptop. Hotels are awesome. I would never pass up on a hotel experience.
@ThisIsAnnie2002 Not my problem, I'm not responsible for other people not being able to control themselves from being persuaded by an ad. I get content, content creator gets money, ad doesn't affect me. Life is too short to give a fuck, and expend thoughts and energy to how an ad might affect other people.

AirBnB with a service dog is a nightmare :( they do not let me use my legal rights or even my right to report the discrimination and accusations of faking my dog(???) despite it causing genuine harm that still affect me YEARS later :(
My last two vacations were at an AirBnB and staying at a relative's cabin. When I was little, my family used to stay at rental cottages (some of which now list on AirBnB) when we went on summer vacation. I am very much a fan of the privacy, homelike environment, and better locations you can get with AirBnB.
As someone who works the front desk at a hotel I can confirm that we do not have any rules. Kidding aside, as long as the guests are not causing damage to the hotel or hurting anyone it's anything goes. We've had guests have orgies in their rooms, do drugs, have marital affairs, you name it, and we never judge or ask questions.
These are all the reasons why I've never stayed at an Airbnb! 😂 It's why I've always stayed in hotels. ❤👍🏻 Thank you for confirming my exact thoughts, precisely to a T!

So if you’re only needing a place to stay and maybe a continental breakfast and don’t need a concierge, give your local 2 stars some love ;)
While I was watching this, my cat came into my room (he can open doors), jumped into my tub of hay that I feed my guinea pigs, and PISSED IN IT. This is completely unrelated to the video but I felt someone should know this.
Has he been up to other shit (piss)
Christmas Day, my Doberman walked into the lounge room as my godson was opening the presents his mum had been up all night gift-wrapping, casually looked around as if it was no big deal, then pissed all over them. Personally, I thought the comedic timing was impeccable, the kids mother not so much…

@@TheLoneMitteni live in the US, i am not called out 😎
@@TheLoneMitten Huh? What are you saying about me?
Oh shit, my bad. *Opens the front door.* Sorry man, I didn't know you were out there.
Huh! Any TH-camr is a businessman and sponsorships are the biggest revenue stream out there. It is ALWAYS the choice of the consumer if they want to buy the product being sold. It is the responsibility of the consumer to do their own research and not commit to any product or person solely based on any advertisement
Agreed, Hotels feels so good to stay in, the beds?? The best. The smell?? Good if it’s fancy. I love Hotels, the feeling is good.
I'm in one right now. It has one of those interior courtyard pools with tropical plants and an atrium. I'm heading down there soon to smell the nostalgic chlorine. It's my favorite smell.
@TheLoneMitten
I got some tragic news for you. That chlorine smell is only caused via urine mixing with said chlorine. Mark Rober, a NASA engineer turned TH-camr, conducted a test and confirmed it was true. 😶
hotel beds are fucking rancid but they are comfortable to be fair
I f*ckin hate hotel beds and sheets
I haaaate hotels. The beds are too soft and fuck up my back, my sister steals the blanket and stops me from sleeping and my parents cpap machine keeps me up all night. I slept a full 12 hours after getting back once because I couldn’t sleep so badly
Honestly he’s telling facts in a way I can actually listen to. I’d definitely listen to Tugg rambling about airbnb and hotels than watch a documentary on it.
Fix your attention span

Dude, my family owns an Airbnb spot here in Brazil, and let me tell you, ain't nobody doing the mopping for us. The other day, there was p**p on top of the CLOSED TOILET. If I have to clean that apartment one one more time, I swear to God, I myself will become an advocate for hotels.
I work construction and do a lot of work for AirBnB owners and landlords in general and see some equally crazy shit. Once saw one that had thousands in damages from a few guys over like a weekend and had a few customers who had guests that used the COVID eviction moratorium as an excuse to not pay anything and not leave until they're forced out.
Some tenants can be super easy, they just live in your building and give you money, but some are maliciously stupid.
So if there were sufficient housing supply and it was understood that tenants had options, society would be way more on landlords side than it already is.
Yeah it's similar in Argentina, we do the cleaning ourselves lol. My mom sometimes pays a person to do it if it's too nasty and we don't have the time, but usually it's not necessary.

If you want to try a DoubleTree cookie, just walk in to a DoubleTree and ask for one at the front desk. You don't need to be a guest or anything, you can just ask for one.
I guess the freebies are a hilton thing, where I work we do the same thing for champagne, half the people coming in are going for the bar but we offer to everyone anyway
@@icannon6611Excuse me?
I live in Las Vegas (from age 10) and finally can afford to do cool shit. I just found out about the Tesla Loop (I don’t know WHEN TF they built it!) and now, FREE CHAMPAGNE at Hilton? Our old Hilton closed years ago…so I don’t even know where to test this out. But I WILL figure it out. I just love walking around a hotel with champagne in my hand. It is hilarious to me. Thanks!
Fun fact about the Trump hotel in Las Vegas: It was supposed to be a casino, but Trump's filed for bankruptcy in the past, which disqualifies you from ever opening a casino.
(Edited for clarity)
Ok but what’s a *real* reason to avoid filing for bankruptcy
@kaiserfranzjoseph9311 it’s probably not stupid at all. I would also like for someone to explain why
I "stayed" there in Amsterdam and can tell you that it is eerily soundproofed and has a small ass door to get through the lift. No lobby and you have to access a safe for the keycards like you are in Mission Impossible. Also there are stairs that look straight the fuck down (150 feet, 10 stories) between the deck where the lift stops in this duplex and the rooms. Once seeing this panic attack out of the elevator I said bye to $600 went back down not trying lose my suitcase to gravity and small stairs. The sole concierge said if I saw the hot tub on top of crane that I would change my mind. The Mystique is a beautifully crafted room but cramped and between the access points and the height it is a straightforward fucking terror trip.
As someone who used to work for a Hilton, I concur on Tugg's rating.
Also, those cookies were exactly as he described.
You ever eat a Hilton cookie while you worked there?
@TJ0564 of course! Tbf, i realized he said the double tree, and I worked at the Hilton Garden Inn. We had like mini versions that were complementary at the front desk, and they were sooooo good.
I loved the part where Tugg said, "It's Tuggin' TIme" and Tugged all over the place.
Bro really tugged his way into our hearts. wait no that sounded wr
Uh, phrasing?
What!?
That'll probably get the video demonized
10:14 this is literally just like whenever your dad just brings up one thing about their lore he’ll only mention once then never again when you ask him about it
"Non binary buckaroos" and "these are hotel children they're barley even people" are 2 sentences i did not realize i needed
14:36 “I’m not an architect or a chef” is my new favorite quote
I totally freaking agree.
Why take a vacation to escape your problems but then make one for yourself instead of a hotel.
Hotels are great. All the showers work, they got big elevators, and they have restaurants. Literally what more could you ask for
Privacy, quiet, more space, better value for money. The benefits are endless
the thumbnails are just getting progressively more and more unhinged and i love it
Checked into a $60 a night motel that was right next to a McDonalds and down the street from a gas station
Best two nights of my life
As a housekeeper we wish we could rate guests 😂 (and you absolutely can put the bathmats in the toilet 🥲)
You should try being newlywed. 😊 Hotels go above and beyond to make your honeymoon the absolute best. Special note in your reservation? Expect a welcome gift basket. Last minute reservation? Casually drop you're looking for a romantic spot for dinner because on your honeymoon and boom--free upgrade. 💘
“Hotel children are barely even people” 🧍
Non-binary buckeroo was 100% Chuck Tingle vibes and I am here for it.
YES. I really hope Tugg is a Tingle fan. That would make me infinitely happy.
man, woman, or any nonbianary buckaroo is the best thing I have herd all month
It reminded me of when he said dudes, dudettes, and non-binary duderinos lol
@@R0S3S-fr4xt as a non-binary bean I adore all Tugg’s forms of inclusiveness
An Airbnb is basically living in your parents house when they’re away, except YOU pay to stay there. That’s the best way I describe it, cause the one Airbnb I stayed at had little notes on what you can and can’t do. Which was basically what my parents did when they were away on a 10 hour trip to who-fuckin-knows-where.
Also, in Badaga Bay (or something, IDK) there is a hotel and it’s basically an Airbnb. Because the town is so small/compact, the “rooms” are tiny houses scattered by the reception building (which is the same size as the “rooms”). You have the room size of an Airbnb with the leniency and cleaning service of the hotel.
I've only stayed at like 3 and the host was always on property. Someone spent too much on their cape cod/Martha's Vineyard property
It depends on the AirBnB. I booked one AirBnB and the owner messaged me to say that the room I originally booked had house rules including no alcohol on site, and also had men currently staying in that apartment. He asked if I wanted to consider a different location (which I did). Overall, he was helpful and the room I booked was great. I have never encountered unreasonable house rules at any property I stayed at.
Airbnb actually made ads saying that its better to stay at an airbnb because when you go on vaca, because you can be with your friends when in a hotel you're apart. THATS THE IDEA!!! YOU CAN HAVE PRIVACY WHEN YOU'RE GETTING READY FOR BED!!!
I work as a housekeeper and listen to podcasts while I clean. I've heard commercials for Airbnb and they make no sense. I'm literally answering every bullet point they mention with, "you can do that in a hotel". Like everyone getting their own room and bathroom and being able to have grandparents around. We have several suites that are basically apartments. One of them has 2 queen size pull out couches!
What house has a bathroom per bedroom? That's only something you can find in hotels.
Airbnb has essentially taken over a nearby county I used to work in. Most of the people who work there now can't afford to live there. Anyone looking to rent a place can only find accommodation for a few months over the winter because it's outside tourist season. They gotta be out when it's needed again for Airbnb.
I've been to a fair few hotels that don't have bathrooms in the rooms, and hotels are extremely overpriced for what you get. That is how services like Airbnb and vrbo have been able to gobble up so much of the hospitality industry so fast, I can stay at an entire house with free parking for a few weeks paying about $15-$20 a day, or I can spend a week in a hotel paying $100-$500 a day. On only extremely rare occasions have I found a hotel or even a motel or hostal room for under $80 a day.
You can't do what you want in a hotel at all because it's a cheaply built apartment shoebox room for twice the price and no amenities that matter
Yes, but you pay a lot more for them, in many cases. I just stayed in an AirBnB that was a full size apartment, in a large city, conveniently located with public transportation on the same block, for about $100 a night, including taxes and fees. A hotel would have changed me double, at least, for identical accommodations.
I find AirBnB has its perks. Parking is a big one for me - I despise having to park far away or paying for parking, but also cooking. I love being able to freely cook in a kitchen and I will not stay anywhere I cannot make my own food.
I know I’m late to this but I work in housekeeping and was curious what podcasts you listen to on the job as I’ve been running low on content.
I know you gotta make money but honestly I wouldn’t do draft kings. Gambling is a nasty addiction that online casinos do their utmost to encourage. Draft Kings is particularly despicable. I don’t have a problem with gambling as recreation, but given the dangers, I think it’s wrong to tell people how fun it is to play with fire. If you can, just avoid their sponsorship. There’s plenty of sponsors to choose from.
I know you would 100% change opinions if you were offered that money
Lost a lot of time and a lot of money and a lot of time and way more money but it was fun but not worth it
That's not his responsibility. We can choose not to engage.
He is promoting a gambling website. It’s his responsibility to not promote it
@@excalibur2038it’s wrong regardless of whoever does it
I'm happy to see someone agree with me on this. I would never ever trust a stranger in my house for what little an AirBnB has to charge to be a better option than even the worst hotel.
That literally doesn't make any sense
Every AirBnB I’ve ever used was way cheaper than the local hotels, and far nicer with far more room. Often in better locations as well. They also never made me clean other than basic decency (like washing my dishes).
Some of them are aaaabsolutely ludicrous, don’t get me wrong. Especially in the States. But abroad they’re pretty solid.
@@laurenkiger457 also, they have different rental property user pools, so like if you are a good guest you’ll get good accommodations.
I had no idea there was someone else out there that loved hotels as much as me. Last year I took a vacation to a Hyatt. Like legit didn’t even leave the room. It was amazing
Loved the video but hated the casino ad. You can get better sponsors than them, who don't make people addicted.
About a couple of months ago, my family and I had a staycation at a hotel in the town we live in. IT WAS THE BEST, there was a pool and you know we swam as much as we could, I had endless cups of cocoa,(not a fan of coffee) we stayed in and watched TV, and the FREE BREAKFAST EVERY MORNING??? Yes!!
Tucker : Just telling the truth in the rage mode
It's not so much rage. It's just quick thinking mixed with anxiety over pet peeves. It's a Massachusetts personality, like he said before.
@@TheLoneMitten you see I am new to this channel and I commented this comment at the start of the video he was full on raging on the aribnb .

This brought back so many memories holy shit thank you Tugg.
as a non-binary person i fully accept "non-binary buckaroo" as new term. that's amazing
As a hotel bartender, I can promise you hotels never left. In fact, most of them own airbnb equivalents
he right my dad was in an airbnb and complianed about all the water damage but saved them a lot of money by fixing the washing machine for free and they got mad at him

As someone who has literally grown up in the travel and tourism industry (father worked maintenance, mother worked front desk, sister works as both front desk and bartender, I work as a lifeguard at a water park) I am pro-hotel/motel and explicitly anti-Airbnb
When he said the whole part about hotel pools, I immediately got a nostalgic whiff of chlorine and remember the ECHO those rooms had.
Right when I say that Tugg posted I clicked. Who can agree?

dude did this whole video just so he could get the ad from draft kings casino 💀
Don't take sponsorships from casinos they're evil.
Honestly, the robe was a nice touch.😂 It was like watching some guy on vacation express his bizzare fascination with hotels.
Everything I've done since bedbugs, was to avoid bedbugs.. and sharks.
Sounds like one of those two things will happen in, or around an airbnb.
13:30 love Tucker hinting at the nightmare of Amelia Earharts death. You gotta watch out for those abominations called coconut crabs 💀🦀💀
Dang, you're right
I like the middle, you can find apartment complexes that rent out furnished rooms so you can have a hotel room with a proper kitchen, washer, dryer, etc.
Hotel doors slam though. Sounds awesome otherwise
“Sign me up daddy-“ 💀💀💀 3:58
And as a woman who travels alone sometimes, I accually dare go into a hotel. With Airbnb it feels like you are booking your own horror movie adventure.
New Oversized Touglass video is up. Good timing! *turns car off, opens garage to air out*

I find it strange Tucker would promote an online gambling website
my friend runs an Air BNB, guests don't clean anything, there is a $150 cleaning charge added to every rental, guests just leave with garbage everywhere, food on the walls, dumps on the floor, and kitchen faucets thrown out the window.
Yea i have seen some people completely destroy the house. Its super sad. And theyll get their account blocked but how easy is it to just make a new one or use someone elses? Ive seen celebrities leave air bnbs in some of the worst conditions ever.
I hope you know how genuinely funny you are and how many smiles and laughs you create.
Thanks, BT.
Love the video, hate that you’re promoting gambling! These sites are extremely predatory, and your audience trusts you. Telling people to gamble responsibly isn’t good enough, I really hope you reconsider working with Draft Kings again (or any of the million gambling sites that I can’t seem to escape for that matter).
He is also promoting "fume products" which everybody knows are just vapes... Like, it is "healthier", but it is just vapes.
Tucker no don't tell me to gamble 😭
Tugg giving us those existential dread but with fun facts too, thats what I preciates about him
dude. you are an absolute legend. i love your videos. so glad you started doing this, probably with some doubts, im sure. but dammit, you're here. and so are we. and its great!
I’ve never been bombarded with chore notes at an Airbnb. I also only used the app to rent poorly-built plywood rooms in frightening hovels for $35 a night.
I was constantly thinking that he MIGHT just flash us at some point 💀
AirBnB was dope when I wanted to save money when visiting somewhere. I remember it being a cheaper option but now with all the bullshit fees it's not worth it. Hotels for life, baby.
Same. I broke up with AirBnB this year 🎉
9:25 That certainly aged
Not even 2 minutes in, I'm sold. Hotels are magical places. When you're in a hotel, you know you aren't home, but you're secure, comfortable. And at least in my experience, that bed will leave you so well rested
Just as long as the drunk assholes in the next room aren't fighting or banging on your door (which has happened to me at least twice).
The last time I took my family on vacation a lot of our vacation plans fell through which included missing show times, dinners, events, and rentals we all had planned.
It was still a great vacation because we spent every night in our hotel making cups of coffee with the little coffee machine they give you in the rooms. We would constantly go back and forth from lobby to room with more coffee and creamers. We watched random cartoons (my kid sister was with us so we had to watch stuff tailored to a younger audience.), basked in the nighttime seabreeze on the room's patio, and my brother and I played video games on my laptop.
Hotels are awesome. I would never pass up on a hotel experience.
Oh nooo online betting ad?? I really liked this channel, that's a fucking huge bummer
Draft Kings is horrible but one bad ad isn’t really a reason to boycott a channel you enjoy imo
Woah so theres this really cool feature where you double tap the right side of the video and if it do it many times it'll skip the ad
@@lyre5250 ignoring the ad doesn't mean it's not there. Knowing a TH-camr you like doesn't care and promotes bad stuff is still a bummer
@ThisIsAnnie2002 Not my problem, I'm not responsible for other people not being able to control themselves from being persuaded by an ad. I get content, content creator gets money, ad doesn't affect me. Life is too short to give a fuck, and expend thoughts and energy to how an ad might affect other people.
Marriott also wanted to be a resort destination at one point so they made Marriott's Great America and it's sister Park in California which are now owned by Six flags and Cedar Fair

I find the fact that there is nothing tying that robe together vaguely threatening...
as a person who knows MANY people who never shut up about airbANDSHIT, THANK YOU tuggs, I am sending this video every one of my friends
AirBnB with a service dog is a nightmare :( they do not let me use my legal rights or even my right to report the discrimination and accusations of faking my dog(???) despite it causing genuine harm that still affect me YEARS later :(
Airbnb is the only reason why my friends and I are able to do our annual cabin trip every year. A hotel can’t capture those trips.
My last two vacations were at an AirBnB and staying at a relative's cabin. When I was little, my family used to stay at rental cottages (some of which now list on AirBnB) when we went on summer vacation. I am very much a fan of the privacy, homelike environment, and better locations you can get with AirBnB.
12:56 tugg is so real for this lmao
Anyone know what this website is?
As someone who works the front desk at a hotel I can confirm that we do not have any rules. Kidding aside, as long as the guests are not causing damage to the hotel or hurting anyone it's anything goes. We've had guests have orgies in their rooms, do drugs, have marital affairs, you name it, and we never judge or ask questions.
2:28 as someone who lives in Cincinnati, I love how accurate that is
These are all the reasons why I've never stayed at an Airbnb! 😂 It's why I've always stayed in hotels. ❤👍🏻 Thank you for confirming my exact thoughts, precisely to a T!
Okay Tucker, you’ve told us why you love hotels, (and made your point very well). But now I need the sequel where you explain in a few concise sections why airbnbs suck harder than a vacuum cleaner
