Bloomington, Illinois is a beautiful destination and has lots to do for visitors of all ages if you’re traveling through Central Illinois. While enjoying all the sights, you may wonder if it’s better to stay at a hotel or a vacation rental.

While everyone’s needs will vary, here are 6 compelling reasons why an Airbnb rental in Bloomington, IL is the best choice. (And of course, hopefully you’ll choose House of Games as your best Airbnb option!)

1. More Space at a Better Price

If you’re traveling in a group, you know how difficult—and expensive—it can be to book a hotel that can comfortably accommodate everyone. An Airbnb rental in Bloomington, IL will give you more space to spread out and relax without breaking the bank. For example, House of Game's three-bedroom rental sleeps up to ten people and costs less than a hotel suite. And with so much extra space, you can even invite other family or friends to stay with you and split the cost!

Even if you’re traveling solo or as a couple, you probably don’t want to feel cramped up in a tiny hotel room when you’re on vacation. With an Airbnb rental in Bloomington, IL, you can get the amount of space that you need at a price that you can afford.

2. More Privacy

When you stay in a hotel, you’re often sharing space with lots of other people. This can make it difficult to get the privacy that you need, especially if you’re trying to get some rest or just want to relax in your room.

With an Airbnb rental in Bloomington, IL you can choose a rental that offers the amount of privacy that you need. You will not have to worry about other guests being in and out of your room or making noise in the hallways.

You will also have a kitchen and living area that you can use without having to leave your room.
