My idea of quality is two good trees and my camping hammock.

Very. I need to have a nice hotel with a clean and comfortable bed that I can retreat to. I'm autistic so I need a safe and comfortable space where I can recharge after an overwhelming and overstimulating day. A hotel isn't home, and it's no replacement for the familiarity of my own bed, but having the best possible room to myself where I can be comfortable to do my calming rituals is extremely important to make sure I don't crash out in the middle of my own vacation.

Depends on the type of vacation: if I’m going somewhere new to see the sights/experience the place I’m perfectly happy with something budget friendly: I want a private room/bathroom but don’t need much else. When I was younger I could do hostels with shared accommodations but I’m over that now.

Sometimes, though, my purpose is to just relax at the beach/pool, in which case I have paid some obscene amounts for a nice place…

It's fairly important to me. I won't go 5 star but I get a nice Airbnb in a decent location. I can't sleep somewhere I feel unsafe and that isn't clean and comfortable. I'm not 20 anymore and wanna be out all the time, I'm middle aged and I want to relax in a home environment. I'm also a big believer in do wtf you want when on holiday so if I want to stay in, relax and watch telly then I will.

Or a good leakproof tent and a super-comfy sleeping bag. Finding a nearby campsite while on vacation instead of a hotel for at least some of the days is so much fun, not to mention cost-saving.

This is why my thermarest is one of my most prized possessions.

Very. I'm autistic and ambiance can make or break my day. Especially shitty lighting.

My accommodation needs when travelling are:

  1. Quiet.
  2. Comfortable bed.

The rest doesn't matter much. I'm using it as a sleeping hole, not a home.
