I agree. I shopped one of the competitor hotels both the hotel as a shop and the restaurant separately for another company. The entrees start at $38 for a "small" portion. With the criteria that we had to order average selections, no lobster or higher priced, etc, the bill was at $370 dinner for two. Breakfast reimbursement is just enough for coffee, definitely does not cover the average room order breakfast there which runs $50 and up for one person. The other competitor hotel has at least three Boteros at the lobby and $50 dinner just does not cut it. Even the convenience store shop inside ups the usual reimbursement and the $30 valet is reimbursed.
