Then again, in a similarly sized US city, I could stay at a Super 8 or La Quinta Inn for $31-$43 bucks. A La Quinta at $39/night has: The La Quinta Inn Amarillo East provides spacious affordable rooms with many useful amenities, including a coffee maker, hair dryer, free HBO, and pay-per-view movies. Our courteous staff sets up a tasty Free Bright Side BreakfastTM every morning. We have a sparkling outdoor Pool for your enjoyment They also tend to have elevators, two room keys, paper, pens, envelopes, thermostats, full sized sheets and bedding, extra towels, bathtub, bathroom exhaust fan, do not disturb signs, shampoo, thicker walls, etc... I'm not trying to knock the hotel too much, it worked, and the location was great. I'm just pointing out that for price conscious travelers who are used to US hotels at the same price point, there are less amenities. Well, I didn’t get to pick the hotel, so you have a point.
