We're off to Northern Italy, Slovenia, etc in May and have booked mainly B & B's and medium-range, but well-priced and recommended hotels.
Anonymous hotel rooms don't really do it, even if they're well appointed.
An occasional splurge is great, if there's a good reason for it; eg: the Banff Springs, or a hotel looking over Boston Harbor. Years ago, you could get great deals with the airfare, so I once stayed at The Ambassadors in LA for $1 a night. Could have played a footy game in the room and had space left over.

this xmas holidays example
eg, paid $280 for a nice room in the port lincoln hotel (inc breakfast) over new years. it was good.
however the next two days we camped at memory cove, right on this awesome secluded beach. It had one long drop toilet, no water.
evenings spent with our deck chairs, fishing rods and BBQ on the beach. unbeatable.
Cost $16 per night.
as long as you are prepared with water, ice, wine, food, tent and prepared to piss under a tree, no better place to spend a night.

Yes, it's on a slide, which I'll get around to converting when I can.
I'll try and print and post it when I can.

There's no need to stay at really expensive places and often Bed and Breakfast places are really good.
Trip Advisor or Booking.com are excellent sites for accommodation.

No point staying in a dive because it's dirt cheap, but you don't want to pay top dollar for a somewhere where you're just going to sleep.
