Thanks for the clarification from said property. My bold. These are over used words. I am all for recycling. Why stop at the plastic key? Charge another $2 for bottled water if guest fails to return the empty bottle, on and on....
Well, just for me, I will try to avoid staying at this property (or others like it)
