Budget accommodation does not necessarily relate to less than average service, facilities and guest experience while it's great to note that there are accommodations which are priced lower then the 4-5 star rated hotels while allowing the guest to enjoy great view, good food, excellent service and a memorable experience.
Hotels with a smaller room inventory are in fact at an advantageous position to provide the above as compared to the larger hotels which require extra funds to finance the larger staff force, maintenance and upkeep to service the guest as well as ensuring high occupancy.
It would be safe to say that one would be able to enjoy better personalised service in budget accommodations if the hotel owner and management do place priority in guest experience which would give the bigger boys a run for their money.
Hotel owner must be ready to change their business approach to upgrade the level of services and facilities to match many better budget accommodations around the world.
