There was a boil water in place, and they handed out one bottle of water, for coffee, brushing teeth, etc. No discount. Then I found out after the fact there is a $10 charge for parking!! Nobody told me that. Just could be a bit more transparent in fees and a bit more accommodating when you can't drink the water....
