> I mean who wants to be that stranger in the other room?

It feels just like a hotel. You usually get towels and your own separate room.

Usually you're travelling so you don't really spend much time there unless you're sleeping.

I stayed in the lower east side for only $50/night, so its definitely worth it.

I agree, I am not usually in my hotel room very often if I am on vacation but that raises the point of, if I am hardly in the room, who cares where I stay? I know this flies in the face of my point of being hung up on being in other peoples homes, but why not just stay in a cheaper motel (if available)?

To be honest, I'd really like to try it one day. Some of those locations look great and the prices are very reasonable.
