Yes, but consider who the majority of the travelers in Eriador seem to have been in the Third Age: Dwarves and Rangers. I can't see either group seeking lodging in hobbit-holes.
Anyway, everyone knows what terrible guests Dwarves are. They eat all your seed-cakes and force you to run around madly trying to keep up with their appetites. And never a please or thank you!

To say nothing of the havoc they wreak with your glasses and plates!

Findegil is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
In 'The History of the Hobbit' it is revealed that the Hobbits had special inns for the use of forginers, like dwarves and probably Rangers. Also Bree has a famous inn. It seems that Erlond could have made many with the position of his house,if he wanted.

Respectfuly
