After staying in five other hotels during this trip to the USA (3 Star to 5 star), last night we checked into the Mirage in Las Vegas. Much to my dismay, unlike in the other five hotels, it had a mini-bar that I couldn't use - except to press buttons in order to open it and take out the drink I'd programmed.
We've previously struck the unuseable minibar trick in London (Melia White House) and Paris (Concord Lafayette)
The ad for the Mirage in Booking.com says that they offer a mini-bar.
I now rate this hotel the lowest of the lot, as I am reduced to using the ice bucket to keep my Pepsi Max and chocolate milk cool if I get thirsty or a bit of heartburn over night. I could order a rental fridge, but the hotel charges US$35 rent a night.
What do you think -
a. Reasonable, as mini-bar is there, versus
b. Misleading, as it can't be used for personal use?

Renato
