And in the meantime they will have a destination fee at every hotel possible that may be somehow considered a desirable destination
If they could they would call it a Resort Fee even at a Courtyard on the interstate
Yeah. Category 9 NY Marriott East Side. Complete dump. Mandatory $25 "amenity fee" with only apparent use being $25 F&B credit. Cheapest food at the single restaurant? $20 turkey sandwich with auto gratuity pre-tax.
"Can I use it for in-room dining?" .... "we actually don't have room service".

45kpts/nt. Garbage.
