1. Pay for parking?? I know this is expected at downtown hotels that do provide you with the convenice of being within walking distance of almost any downtown destination (thus saving you the hassle of finding and paying for a parking place), but $28 a night is pretty steep, especially considering that my freeway motel, with a spacious room, free breakfast, and free internet, has a $0 parking charge.

6. We loved the fitness center (free fruit and lots of flat screens, plus it was totally empty).

7. I've come to realize (don't know why when the Best Western can give you internet for free) that the upper end hotels charge for internet but in the lobbies and in the Club InterContinental Lounge, you can use their wifi for free.

8. Parking at the hotel is very expensive, however there are so many free of other options close by.

9. We wanted to watch it in our room, not the bar and if the bar had the Golf Channel, why didn't the rooms???Our room cost us $260 a night and frankly I would think that at that price we could expect free internet service and modern TV' s with all the popular channels.

10. Leave a free bottle as a welcome gift and we will love you or don't put any there at all; the for sale sign is just irritating.
