[quote=Anonymous]I travel a lot for work and because of my position, I get to stay at nicer hotels/resorts.

All of the luxury hotels I've stayed in have 100% of their services operating again. My room gets cleaned daily without asking and there are no limits on the number of people who can use the gym/spa/pool.

Now, as a regular joe traveler with my family, I'm cheap af and routinely stay in 3-& 4-star hotels. I want my money to go towards doing experiences while on vacation, not into the room where I'll spend little time. The budget hotels are the ones that still have limited services like no housekeeping, spa/sauna not operating, limited pool time, etc.

The hotel we stayed in over winter break still only allowed 12 guests at a time in the pool and you had to schedule pool time in blocks of 90 minutes with the front desk. They also didn't clean our room at all. We were instructed to place dirty towels and full trash bags outside of our door for collection. We then had to call the front desk to let them know how many clean towels were needed & when we'd be out of our room for a cleaner to drop them off. By day 3 with kids, there was sand in the bed, the tub, and on the bathroom floor. It was very annoying but all the hotel would do is drop off a broom or fresh linens for me to sweep or change the beds. We paid $325/night so it wasn't some $80/night motel type place.  [/quote]
