I prefer Ceramic Floor Tiles. Ceramics score high on the ease-of-maintenance, but they are not nearly as comfortable to bare feet as vinyl, or as easy to install.

What was the floor covering called in a medieval manor house?
Floors of manor houses were usually made of wood, stone, or tiles. The pictures I have seen of them show them as bare. Carpets were available, but were usually hung on walls. There is a myth that people threw down piles of straw on the floors to cover over stinky messes, and the straw would accumulate for months or years before it was taken out. I have traced this to a letter written by Erasmus in the 16th century describing the current conditions in English inns. I feel fairly certain he was trying to be humorous.
