I travel in a Prius, which can be slept in if needed. So far I haven't spent a night in it, but instead have booked a few AirBNB homes. Prices range from cheaper than a motel, to more expensive than a penthouse suite of a 5-star hotel depending on what you are looking for. It's easy to find affordable places that offer a private kitchen, bath, bed, and living room.

Seeing the sites is easier when driving the Prius since I don't have to limit myself to places with RV parking. Sometimes I just pull onto the shoulder of a forest road to park and hike around.

My wife and I have vowed to never haul a house around with us, but I can see that it makes sense for those who spend several months out of every year away from home.
