Pricing is still relevant, at least in Europe (from my experience). I've done a lot of low-budget traveling with small groups of students in France this year, and AirBnB was (unfortunately) consistently and significantly less expensive than hotels.

Also, many hotels don't give you access to a kitchen, which really sucks if you don't want to spend money eating out every day.

There are probably better local websites in the countries you're going to if you want apartments. I don't know any in France, but they have them in other countries. Ask around. Vacation destinations are literally all apartments for rent by tourists.

Ask around

All right. Do you know any for any European country?

Yes. Adriatic.hr is good for Croatia.

But that requires effort on my part!
