Is this the most ridiculous hotel fee? by DCTA. One of the reasons I hate luxury hotels is because even though the room rate is more expensive, they still nickle and dime you at every corner. It’s especially annoying when they charge additional fees that are a standard freebie at lower end hotels. I get it, people paying more for a room likely don’t care about these small fees but it’s one of the most annoying things in my travelling life.
