When picking the perfect hotel for the perfect getaway, you probably have a checklist of hotel amenities that you consider mandatory. Some of these may include: free Wi-Fi, cable, pool or Jacuzzi, and in-room safe. While it’s important to think ahead and make sure the basics are covered, you may want to consider every amenity your hotel offers before you confirm that reservation. You may be surprised to learn that your hotel offers more than you would expect.
