It would buy a lot of churros.
Disney World in Florida recently revealed its pricing for the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser resort, which is set to open next year. Since it is not just a typical hotel, it costs significantly more than a normal hotel room.
One of Disney World’s neighbors had something to say about the cost.
According to the Disney World website, a two-night trip on the Galactic Starcruiser starts at $4,809 for two guests. Adding a child to the reservation brings the cost up to $5,299. These rates are for standard cabins and don’t reflect the cost of booking a larger suite.

The cost includes all food and beverages on the Starcruiser (except for alcohol and specialty beverages), along with some quick service meals at various locations around Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Admission to the park is also included in the reservation, along with valet parking and a MagicBand.
When news broke about the pricing, Universal Studios tweeted, "Think of how many churros you could buy with that kind of money."
