It might be worth mentioning that Motel6, a budget hotel chain
(catering to poor grad students & the like :-), has been offering free
local calls for at least a year or two now.  I have found this
extremely handy.  Of course you can't charge toll or long distance
calls to your room tab (must use calling card, collect, etc.), but
that's okay with me.
