What Expert Travelers Think
— I use and I recommend AllTheRooms because it is a complete platform. It helps to save a lot of time, it gives all the main information about price, location, and features. In a few steps, I can easily find the best place to stay according to my criteria.
My AnasaMy Anasa— My favorite thing about AllTheRooms is that it combines both rentals and hotels available so you can see an entire view of what is available in a certain area. I was able to see listings on AllTheRooms that I never even saw on other travel sites!
Daniella FloresILIKETODABBLE— I love All the Rooms because instead of having to check one place for home rentals, another for hotel, another for bed and breakfasts, and yet another for a room rental in a private residence, I can finally see EVERYTHING at one site; saving me considerable time
