I'm going on a weekend to visit a friend, I'm not interested in finding out
about your "community".  The last thing I want to do after working all week is
spend my free time hunting down a bargain.  If I have to spend a lot of time
doing that, then it's not really a bargain, is it?  I could spend that time
working, and earning more $ to pay for a higher priced room.

Of course, these cheap places could advertise a little, then the proletarian
hordes like myself could fill their rooms, and they could charge higher prices
and make more money.
