Political Factoid
"U.S. hotels will take in an estimated
$1.8 billion in add-on fees and
surcharges* this year [2011]."
- Baggage-holding fees
- Minibar-restocking fees
- Resort fees
- bottled water
- use of the in-room safe
- access to the fitness center,
- etc.
That is up 50% from what they
collected in 2000.

That's in addition to the expectation of a gratuity.
