[NFB-Conventions] WI-FI, Minibar and Refrigerators At Convention

[Lee Martin]

Hello David,

I thought I'd send you the following information for your perusal and 
if necessary consider its dissemination.
Per Reservationist: The waved resort fee does not include access to 
Wi-Fi throughout Mandalay Bay and the standard cost for Wi-Fi is 
approximately $40.00 per night, the reservationist did state that 
there are certain places in the convention area where you can pick up 
Wi-Fi without paying but it would be sporadic, it was recommended to 
see how the Wi-Fi is working for you and if not satisfied make your 
personal choice to purchase or not.

The rooms have a minibar on top of the dresser which contains candy, 
nuts and snacks which have sensors for each item and if accidentally 
bumped guest room will be automatically charged, the same charges 
apply for items in the  refrigerator. Guest can opt to have the  wet 
bar candy, nuts and snacks removed, as well as the refrigerator 
locked or remove.  The minibar owners take inventory prior to your 
arrival and after, so whatever is missing is what they will charge 
you for, one  bit of constellation is that after the final minibar 
inventory any items that may have been shifted or lifted off the 
sensors and are still there then they would remove that item from your bill.

Mandalay Bay reservation toll free number is: 877-632-9001


Minibar update:
Just received a call from a representative with  Mandalay Bay, stated 
that to remove the minibar from the room it would cost the guest 
$50.00 per room, recommended to call desk if sensor with items are 
tipped to avoid charges.




Best
