I love getting into a room and there's a fresh bottle of water - you're right, it's a small thing but it's those small things that make you return next time you are in that city.

I really like the RadissionSAS because they have free wireless, snazzy and good smelling soap/shampoo, and heated bathroom floors. Those little things almost make me more loyal to them...not the fact that I get extra "points" by staying there. I travel a lot in Europe.

Amazing that of all the things that might be important when staying at a hotel that a simple courtesy like water could be a point of differentiation. It is not so much the offer of free water but the arrogance of over-charging for water and seeing customers as a line item to be maximized.

It's a great perk and a good reason to return. It really is about the simple things when we're traveling. A few of the Starwood hotels I’ve stayed at do this.
