We use the holed variety... and rate them highly.
Tend to use them as a pathway from tent door to cooker...
Originally on a groundsheet...
But now, tend to put them direct on grass, as they can be pegged with those dome headed "Mushroom" pegs, when it's windy...
They are, afterall, very light!
Comfy underfoot, and warm too, so if the grass is reasonably short, you can get from tent carpet to kettle and back, barefoot! 
Table/chair legs etc will of course put a dent in them, but that aside, are pretty much indestructible under normal use.
In all honesty, if the weather is A1, we now prefer to get on grass asap, so maybe put just one or two tiles immediately in front of the tent door, where we can step in/out of wellies/crocs etc.
We have 8 altogether. Something like £12 for 4, if memory serves, and came with the edging strips, which we decided were to fiddly/life's too short, so they are at the back of the garden shed somewhere, I think.
There are millions on the market, mostly at similar prices, with a fair few a bit cheaper than what I paid.... but just one thing to look out for..... some are 500mm square, some (ours) are 600mm square!
Lidl/Aldi ones get many a mention on here, and all good I believe, but they tend to be in and back out of stock in the blink of an eye.... as they are so popular!!
Wouldn't surprise me if some folk used 'em under airbeds, either?
