Yes, but I wouldn’t otherwise eat breakfast (lol), and I sadly almost never get to use the 4pm checkout for work trips. Flying out of NYC on a weekday evening sounds like a nightmare 😂.

FHR options at the Langham were not a good deal unfortunately for my 9/9-9/12 NYC stay. If they offered the 3rd night free like they do sometimes, that would’ve made a big difference I feel.

i still have 2 additional trips, so I have another chance to possibly use FHR.
