DISers will know that I have high expectations when it comes to "luxury" hotels...
But what do I make of "budget" hotels?
Well, they fill a gap if you can't afford much. Thing is, you DO spend half your time in them, trying to sleep. I stayed at a cheapo hotel at a cost of about $15 a night a way back with my then girlfriend (my first foreign holiday, let alone Disney themed!) and it was dire... the A/C was loud as hell and the beds extremely uncomfortable - half the springs had gone and the things actually creaked. Breakfast was interesting - hunks of bread with butter substitute with water.
But, at the end of the day, it enabled us to visit Disney World! And that on its own was AWESOME!
So yeah, as I said, you get what you pay for...
