So you shower in your room. Simple and effective.
Limo ????? You were pampered - what's your secret ?

Best I've had is one of only three passengers in a (perfectly comfortable) shuttle van.


And I know it's tiresome, but worth pointing out connection time alone is not the unique qualification for the hotel perk. Crucially, there must be no other scheduled connection, available or not, below the magic qualifying hours.
