Anatole Media-Bar-rev1Once again, the hotel is not charging the one-night deposit when you make your reservation, and is also waiving the automatic incidental charge at check in.  When you present a debit or credit card at check-in, please tell the agent whether you want “incidentals” turned on.  Incidentals include: room service charges to your room, phone calls from the room, mini bar access, in room movies and parking automatically charged to your guest room.  If you decide to have the incidentals turned on, your Debit / Credit Card will be charged $50 per day, per room unit “hold”.  This is an industry standard to cover any incidental charges – movies, room service, phones, etc.  Please note, the front desk will need to be told by you, at check-in, to make this change.
