It is not unusual to pay $500 a night for a hotel room in Augusta during the Masters. HOWEVER, this is a terrible choice. And it would be terrible at $50 as well. Smokey, holes in the walls, towel racks hanging on by a thread, bad beds, crappy pillows, transients mingling around, exposed plumbing and wiring in the ceilings, see through towels….. Shall I continue? If we hadn’t prepaid, I would have gone to store and bought a pup tent and slept with the first clown that invited me into the woods behind the hotel.
