Road trips for families is how you stay on a budget. It’s easy to get hotels for around $100 a night that include breakfast if you stay out of world-renowned destinations.
A lot of vacations also involve crashing at another family member or friends spare bedroom/fold out couch.
I grew up with family vacations like this (inflation adjusted) and I had a great time. It’s hard to wrap your mind around when you think vacations require significant travel.
100$ for four beds including breakfast? I live in Europe, perhaps that's why the prices feel off. I pay around 100$ per night without breakfast here in most places, for 2 people.
$100 for two queen beds and continental breakfast. The way my family did it is the parents would sleep in one bed and then the siblings would trade off sleeping in the other bed and sleeping in a sleeping bag/on a couch/on a cot.
