Which is better, staying in a hotel first and paying later or paying online?

1. Convenience: Hotel online payment is more convenient and fast. You can book, pay and choose rooms online, which saves the trouble and waiting time of paying at the store. However, it is relatively troublesome to check in at the front desk of the hotel before payment, and you may have to wait for room allocation.

2. Security: Hotel online payment can be made through a third-party payment platform or credit card, so the payment security is guaranteed. However, you need to check in first and then pay in cash at the hotel front desk, which is not as safe as online payment.
