D&D 5E Do you guys allow long rests in dungeons?

I accidentally opened the the same thread as Charlaquin, go here:

D&D 5E - Do you allow long rests in the dungeon?

This question came up in another thread about long rests, and I thought it was a big enough topic to merit its own discussion. Do you allow your players to take a long rest in a dungeon (or other non-dungeon adventure location)? What about during travel? If “yes,” what are the risks associated...

Case by case. As a general rule I don't control when players long rest and I don't find reasons to interrupt them just because.
Saying that if they rest too often I start reducing EXP and the world doesn't stop and waits for them to recover.

Players can attempt whatever they want. Whether it succeeds is another story.

If the players can find a safe and relatively comfortable place to rest, and they aren't interrupted by anything, then they will get the benefit of a long rest.
