absolutely!
I've been able to get complementary points in the past but was just wondering what the general population was up to.

Not the hot food (obviously). I've stayed there many many times, and they almost always have kosher (cold) options - oatmeal, cereal, fruit, etc.

Same happened to me. Did you complain at the hotel or call when you got back home?

Thanks. Is no kosher breakfast really something to be compensated for? These hotels never claim to have kosher breakfast. We stayed at Embassy Suites with full breakfast, and when I asked them if we could get a small break on the rate bc. we won't be able to eat breakfast they said no. Its included in the rate with the assumption that some people won't use it.
