My cab driver in Lisbon said 'you pay for the view, not the room'

I was complaining about my tiny hotel room that cost $120 a night. He told me to look for pensions in the Alfama district next time, where a clean room with a shared bath can be $35. He said tourists spend too much on a private bathroom they barely use. That totally flipped how I look for a place to sleep. Has anyone else found a city where staying in a specific neighborhood cut their costs in half?
