In my opinion, US plan roaming INTL with voice isn't a deal breaker but data is. I don't mind $10's/100's in phone but won't pay $1000 in data so if your using little data and can do hotel internet, that might suffice.
Concur. And the recent moves by large hotel chains to make internet access at no extra cost to elite members makes a huge difference.

Only suggestion I would have is to roam US voice and get a hotspot for data and look for a SIM that is a reasonable cost roam.

I think we all miss the old Verizon Intl data plan!
Not just Verizon, but some of the others, too.
