No Fees!

FEES, FEES, FEES!!!!! Airline fees and now more hotel fees! And these hotel fees are showering billions of dollars into the hospitality industry. Here are some of the fees you may have encountered or will encounter when you travel. Lets start with the internet fees. A charge could be per minute or per day and/or per devise! Then there are the telephone surcharges, fees to use the business center, room service delivery fees, minibar restocking fees and fees to use the minibar, parking fees, and the new one - fee to have the bell staff hold your bags before you check in or after you check out! Some hotels are automatically adding a gratuity fee to your bill. Then there can be an airport shuttle fee, an energy surcharge fee, in-room safe fee (even though you may not even use it!), a fee to send or receive packages, and the resort fee that would cover use of the pool, exercise equipment, and other amenities at the hotel.

WOW! Now that's a lot of fees! But wait! There is a better way! Stay at a B & B! At least here at Hallauer House we have FREE parking, FREE minibar, FREE internet for all devises for entire stay, FREE use of land line, FREE luggage hold, FREE send and receive packages, FREE use of printer (our business center), and FREE use of pool, sauna, exercise room, pool table, ping pong table, and board games. And we have no surcharges on anything! The price that you are quoted is the price that you will pay.

Check out our industry and when you are planning that next trip and are looking for a place to stay, remember - B & B's are the better way to stay!
