As a member of the still working class I will use both methods. My trailer is for a weekend to maybe a week camping. But even a week is rare.
If I need to go any distance I'm in the Suburban or taking a plane and staying at a hotel.
Staying in my own clean bed? Not concerned. The hotel beds are changed before I get there. If the place is really so cheap that they are not changed I'm never going to know it. AND I'm going to sleep soundly and wake up and since I have an immune system I'm not going to have cooties.
I take cruises on a cruise ship. My favorite is the three day booze cruises from Los Angeles to Ensanada. It's a booze cruise with a lot of young (30 something) kids. I'm aware of what happened in that cabin bed the night before I got there. Yep I stay in that bed and I don't worry about it.
Cooking a nice meal every night? I'm sure that some of you do that and I'm sure that many of you are outstanding cooks. But I'll also bet that the majority of you will maybe cook a hamburger or just make a sandwich and have a beer or two. Me I'm on vacation I don't want to have to cook and do dishes and make the bed every morning. I do that stuff at home not on many vacation.
I'm going to go to the restaurant where somebody takes my order and serves me my hot food. And for some reason food almost always tastes better when someone else does all the work and you just have to sit back and enjoy it. Well with the exception of the cafeteria at Yosemite Lodge or Curry Camp. Yeah that food leaves a lot to be desired. But 20 minutes later I'm past that point and having fun again and not having to stop to do the dishes etc.
Don't get me wrong I like my trailer. I like it a lot and I use it for weekends often. The bathroom fits me but it is cramped. My kitchen counter is tiny. My dinette table is on two poles so it's wobbly. The foam in the dinette cushions is fine for 45 minutes then you start to feel the wood base underneath more and more. The furnace is a bit loud at times but it does not wake me at night. The hot water supply is limited.
Would I sell my trailer and go back to a tent? Heck no not a chance. I love RV'ing and I love my trailer and I love vacations in it. I'm just not at a point in my life where I need or want to limit myself to one method of travel.
