A1: Primarily, space, and exclusivity. Having access to a fully equipped kitchen can also be a real bonus, for example, this one (with some extraction that looked like it had been borrowed from a space programme).

A1 The appeal of homestays is always about the people I meet who introduce their culture & other people; the friendliness of knowing locals always enhances my travels. #TTOT Images Elsigenalp #Switzerland @SonjaSwissLife

A2: A set of the full range of local chocolate bars springs to mind (shout out for https://t.co/CFtqCIAZTD - no affiliation). A gift for the owners before leaving is a nice idea too.

A3: This place at Apollo Beach near Tampa, FL, had a few unexpected features, incl. an old Space Invaders machine in the den, but we don’t usually have to go to the pet store when travelling.

A3: We stayed in the backcountry of St. Tropez in France on a small farm.
We had great views, it was quite and the food was yummy! #TTOT https://t.co/8hv97d1Eiy

A4: After the aforementioned space and exclusivity, being out of town (but close enough to visit if required) in a scenic rural setting is the icing on the cake (see A3). A hot tub &/or bbq is always a bonus. Oh, and wildlife on the doorstep.

A4 Welcoming hosts who know the place & provide visiting info. Cleanliness. Security. Located near transport. Stayed in a basement with a kitchenette of a family in Frutigen, #Switzerland with a stunning view. Image @SonjaSwissLife #TTOT

A4: Private space and a gemütliche (cozy) atmosphere.

And it should be clean, but that's obvious & the same for all accommodation types. #TTOT https://t.co/yHB7YiGqg9

replying to @SonjaSwissLife @SonjaSwissLife @TravelDudes A4 Cleanliness, amenities, a kitchenette is convenient and so is a washing machine for longer stays. 😀 #ttot

A5: Not speaking for the whole team, but prob. wouldn’t book to stay away until a vaccine is distributed widely. Would have to be v. confident in the cleaning regime between different guest occupancies.

Might make an exception if moose in garden. 😉

A3. Cheating a little - this was actually nextdoor to where we stayed ... but we had a few meals and drinks with Maria in Breb, Romania, and anyway they were family! That is also the charm of a homestay...#ttot
