If I’m taking a vacation, I’m going to stay in a slightly more upscale Embassy Suites mostly for the better breakfast and the free happy hour. I still get the two room suite. I’m also going to stay closer to the city center when our plans are to do something everyday and we would be using Uber to get around. The same applies to business trips.
But, in our case when we are planning to live there and I’m working and we will have a car, comfortable sleeping arrangements, a separate workspace, decent WiFi [1], and a kitchen are far more important. We can drive to the city on the weekend and in the evenings.
[1] my backup plan for bad WiFi is using my phone and my iPad as hotspots. T-mobile has unlimited hot spot with 50Gb high speed hot spot for each device.
I can spin up a large Windows Workspace VM or Cloud 9 Linux environment on AWS to conserve data coming to my computer if needed.
