So, I've been in Huntington Beach CA this past week. My dad was on a work trip so we went with him, and his work paid for us to stay in a super expensive and "nice" Hilton right on the beach. We got there, there was one bed, so I slept on the floor. Which I'm not complaining about...it's actually good for my back when i sleep on the floor. There was only valet parking, so when we wanted to use the car, that meant we had to have cash to tip the guys. There was no free continental breakfast, no (free) hair dryer, no fridge, no microwave, no free internet, etc. Well, right now we are more than half way home, and are staying in a Hampton hotel, much much cheaper than a Hilton....I have my own bed, we have a fridge, microwave, hair dryer, free breakfast in the morning, free internet.
I know it sounds like all i'm doing is complaining, but i'm not...i thoroughly enjoyed this whole week. My point is, why in the world would anyone spend so much money just to stay in a hotel where you are just going to need to spend more money for things that cheaper hotels give you for free? It just doesn't make any sense.

you're on your way home:) yeah totally know what you mean, since we have a disney time share we trade it out to stay at expensive places, they're so nice, but you have to pay for everything!
