two rooms, one move, two different things
Two Hotel Vacation Packages: One Move in the Middle
Two hotel vacation packages: long enough at each end to stop living out of a bag, short enough to see two different things.
The compromise that usually works. Four or five nights is long enough to settle, and two settlings in one trip cover ground a single base cannot reach.
The whole thing turns on the move in the middle. Done badly it eats a day and both halves feel shorter; done well it is a morning on a train with lunch at the far end. Every page here times it door to door rather than describing it.
The other advantage is quieter: two suppliers means two cancellation deadlines, and they are rarely the same day. Half a trip can sometimes be unwound when a whole one cannot.

The mark on each is a shape, not a color. It starts as a square and loses more of its corner the more often you have to pack.
