They'll probably list "Instant Movies on Demand" and "Mini-Bar"
in the room amenities too, but that doesn't mean they're free
either (nor is the telephone service).  (Note that they didn't
say "included in the price of your room are: x,y,z; what they
said is more like "the room comes equipped with x,y,z.)

I know what I'm talking about (and so does Randal), because I spend
lots of time in hotels. 8-}

But if you're lucky, you'll get a free chocolate on your pillow every
night, which should mollify you somewhat 8-}
