Call me spoiled, but I can understand how you feel about looking out the window and seeing an eye sore hotel and comparing it to others around.
I understand Not everyone can afford to stay at five star hotel. We normally go to a plush all-inclusive trip, where everthing is included and I dont have to worry about meal plans, but since my daughter loves theme parks, we've been there 2 times, and we'll be going back at the end of September.
We booked a stay for 4 nights at LPB. Have you ever been there? If so; whats your opinion on that place.
