Whereas my $11 hotel room in Siem Reap is great. Included airport shuttle, breakfast (admittedly just toast and eggs), front desk people were very hospitable when I arrived, showed me a map with the places to eat around town, room was bearable and had no bugs!
Mostly they're disappointing because i have to pay an amenity fee, internet fee, water bottle fee, buy the snack I accidentally knocked off of the magnetic minibar, towel fee, gym fee, etc.

A luxury hotel with Hampton Inn level of service would be nice.
