Could only rent movies at $13.99 plus tax a pop or taped TV episodes at $6 a show.
What the H...l?
On top of that I was charged something outrageous like 14% tourist occupancy tax.
Needless to say I didn't eat dinner or breakfast in the hotel or watch any TV.
Is this California's grand plan to try to be welcoming to tourists and visitors to the state?

There's your answer. Have you ever stayed in a D.C. area hotel? How about renting a car from airport and paying $60+ in area taxes and fees. You probably could have stayed in a much nicer (and cheaper) place just and freeway exit or two further away.
+1 on Hilton Garden Inn vs. Hilton. Save's $25/night immediately on WiFi and parking and the rooms/beds are just as nice.
