After being in disgusting hotels that shows a beautiful picture trough the web and once you are there the hotel just sucks... From now on, A hotel has to belong to a renamed Chain...i.e: Marriott, Intercontinental, Hilton..etc.

Good location and low price!
I don't need to stay at a fancy hotel. If I am in a hip town like Amsterdam, Paris, London, Havana, New Orleans or Montreal, I don't really care about hotel amenities.

I also tend to stick with chain groups. They can keep the TV, I find an in-room safe more valuable these days - I hate those safety deposit boxes down at reception.

A night club, this great pool bar, amazing food, close to the beach, it has to have this huge bed, and a shower with a jacuzzi integrated with view to the beach....
sorry I got carried out
I think it need to be clean, and if it has a pool better.

When I'm paying, a bed in a room, which is clean. A shower and a common room with a TV (in other words a youth hostel)
When I'm working Multiple stars and a big bed and a clean bathroom.

I'm pretty easy to please when it comes to hotel/motel rooms. As long as the rooms are clean, a comfortable bed and pillows, it's somewhat quiet (I prefer not to stay on the ground floor), has a TV, and somewhere to eat in walking distance. I'm a low frills kind of person, I don't even care if the room has a coffeemaker in it.

I'm fairly easy, as long as it's cheap, safe and clean then it's fine for me. An en-suite bathroom is always handy (especially when you have the shits) anything else is a bonus.
To me a hotel room is just somewhere to store my gear and sleep.

I prefer a 4 star, but as I can't usually afford them, location and a TV come into the equation. I have stayed in some dodgy hotels (Cygnet in Luton *shudder*), but nice ones too (Radisson SAS Hannover, and staying at the Barcelo Lanzarote in a couple of days - 4* )

Reasonable location. Clean public facilities and rooms. Comfortable bed. Good water pressure. Somewhere I can buy a tea (coffee bar etc.) or a microwave and fridge in room or accessible nearby. Preferrably a Starwood or Hyatt property.

I would ask them to give me a room on the top floor, share only one common wall to the next room. Of course, 4+ stars hotel only.
Reasons:
#1: I don't like people walk or kids run above me
#2: I don't want to listen to all the banging on the bed with their wife/gf. But it is Okay for me to bang with the guy or guy with guy banging next door.

Quoting Saigonhouston (Reply 22): But it is Okay for me to bang with the guy or guy with guy banging next door.
Hypocrite....
This leads me to what I HAVE to have..... CLEAN EVERYTHING!!
Clean sheets, Clean bathroom/tub/sink, clean floor. Without these what's the point?
Now things that would be nice
-Hot water for a REALLY long shower
-Nobody in the surrounding rooms or kids running down the halls at all hours.
-A pool
-cable TV with free porn
What would be awesome:
