Idk what your problem is, a free bottle of kosher wine is infinitely better than a free bottle of non-kosher wine, even if it isn't the most amazing wine.

Of course. Just I doubt they’ll let you choose anything for free even if they get more premium wines than they have.

That's the most ridiculous wine list I've ever seen. Kedem Sweet Wine for more than Capacanes.

I was sure they'd give me the kedem when they told me they were providing me with kosher wine. Was impressed it was at least something drinkable.

Upcoming stay at the W. What do I need to request in advance?
1. What is the best OWB?
2. Technician to turn off automatic air conditioning shutoff for shabbos (anything specific I should say or they will know?)
3. Store frozen food and heat up meals
What else?

Sounds right.
I'd assume sunset side is better, but it's been too long since I was there.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.
