it doesn't matter what 'price range' you are motel/hotelling it at

if you ask for a kitchenette, you will get exactly that

i have asked for 'sleeping accomodation only' and, due to lack of rooms,
we have got a kitchenette for the same price as what we wanted/needed at
the time

i have always asked for, and received, for NO additional charge, a
mini-fridge in my hotel suite
