Hotels suck ass too. We stayed in a "luxury" hilton and it was shit. It looked nice at first, but then

  • Everything was falling apart.
  • You got a "complimentary" water bottle (like a kirkland style) if you were a member, but it was $2.50 (maybe even $3.50 which I think I would have remembered cuz it's funny) if you weren't.
  • They charged you a $60 deposit in case you use that bottle of water or something? We got that back, but it was stupid that we had to check.
  • We didn't use the parking pass for 2 days and they refused to give that money back.

They're only being a little nicer right now because they're losing business. They'll go back to huge shits if they get the market share back.

That's just the Hilton for you, to be honest. I stayed in one in San Diego long time back for visiting a conference in the center right next to it. Was quite expensive and for that amount of money nothing special was given. I only had free wifi because I booked under the conference offer, so normally not even that was free.
