Types of Hotels and Accommodations

Jamal: Have you found a place for us to stay in Chicago?

Erin: I’m still Exploring the options. Instead of a Run-of-the-mill chain hotel, I thought we could do something different.

Jamal: How different?

Erin: I thought we might stay in a Cabin near the lake.

Jamal: A cabin? That sounds a little too rustic for me. My days of Roughing it in Hostels or Fleabag motels Are over. A cabin sounds like it would be In the same league.

Erin: Oh, I don’t know. There are some very nice cabins, and even if they’re less than Luxurious, I don’t mind staying in a Modest place. We can’t afford an expensive Boutique hotel, you know.

Jamal: I know that, but there are a lot of other options. We could stay in a Bed and breakfast or a Vacation rental. Remember the bed and breakfast we stayed in in Montreal?

Erin: Yeah, that was nice. Okay, you win. I was trying To appeal to your Adventurous spirit.

Jamal: My adventurous spirit is still here. It just needs the right Inducement.
