Our vinyl in our recent purchase is scuffed worn in places.

I'd avoid a rug because of its trip hazzard.

Vinyl is definitely easier to keep clean - we have some rugs in our van between beds and at kitchen bench purchased at big green shed $15.00 each - www.bunnings.com.au/bayliss-50-x-80cm-universal-synthetic-mat_p4492776
