I did that survey yesterday.

I have only stayed at the standard Ibis brand before. However Ibis Budget speaks for itself. In my survey I just said Ibis budget gets you a bed and nothing more. Because i didnt stay at an Ibis budget hotel I even thought they may not include bathroom and toilet within the room and was shared.

If i am really tight with money I am okay to use Ibis budget. As long as its clean. Reality is I choose not to because my holidays are not long and so I prefer a little more comfort to reward all those weeks working without a day off.

Now Ibis styles are harder to determine if you didnt use. I said they about the same as the standard Ibis if not a little higher priced as seems their rooms are more stylish?

Also definately all properties vary within the same brand.
