Jesus, no offense but that doesn't really sound like a vacation. I prefer to be pampered when I travel.

to each his own but I much prefer to travel cheaply, mainly so I can travel more. But I generally go on 3-4 week vacation vs. 10 days.

Even if I didn't, I would still prefer it this way. When you pamper yourself, you lose a bit of the experience of visiting a different country.
