What hotel is fancy enough to have ice buckets and dispensers but not a fucking fridge?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I don't think I've ever been to a hotel that didn't have an ice dispenser/bucket, but have been to plenty that don't have a fridge. Heck, Motel 6 has ice machines and a stupid plastic bucket.

Weird, I don't think I've ever seen an ice dispenser. Is this a USA thing?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Very likely.. A lot of road trip travel by car, sometimes toting coolers. And Americans like their beverages cold.

Yup. I was super surprised when I heard that in Europe, they don't give you ice by default, and they give you seltzer unless you ask specifically for something else.

Fridge takes hours to cool a drink, but put it in an ice bucket and it'll be cold after you're done pooping.
