This is supposed to be a backpacking trip, I know. But the reviews I’ve seen online were all so discouraging, that I just gave up and booked with Tunehotels.com. Of course, it was only after I checked in that I remembered Ajay recommending a couple of Penang guesthouses from her recent trip. Oh well. Besides, I’ve been wanting to try it out since I first found out about thisno-frills hotel. [...] [...] Yup, you read that right, hotel. This is supposed to be a backpacking trip, I know.

But remember that like all no frills, 9.99 is only the base price as they also have taxes there, I tried booking 3 days in advance and got 66RM in total. Which is still relatively cheap in my terms since I was able to sample some backpacker lodgings there. I’ve heard about this when it was about to launch and thought this was a good idea.

It seems like wherever or whenever I go someplace, prices are at a premium. "Inexpensive" is anything less than $100, it seems. That's why I read this site: to learn this stuff! Now: cheap hotel in Valencia, Spain, in late August 2008? I gotta learn how to travel cheap like this!
