I do this. Definitely is a big help
I hate having a lot of luggage or huge luggage. I usually bring a mid size suitcase and just a gym bag as a carry on. If the trip is not long and I don't need a variety of clothes or if we are staying at an air bnb where I can do laundry I will just bring a gym bag with maybe 4 days worth of clothes and do laundry when needed.
We went to visit family in Texas for two months last year and I brought a couple pairs of shorts, a few tshirts, one pair of jeans, one sweater and like 5 days worth of boxers and socks and I was good to go. One bag. Good thing too because between my wife and the kids, I think we brought half the house with us. haha.

If I know I have access to laundry wherever I’m going I refuse to travel with more than one bag lol

I used to travel a lot but not so much anymore. It is tougher and way more expensive with the kiddos. I used to take a few short trips a year 3-5 days but now a trip with the kids is a huge ordeal and I will be lucky if it cost less than 5k.
