Cheap resources
Hotels usually charge hefty
fees to use their fax machine. If you need to send or receive a fax and
it's impossible to do so from your room, a cheaper option might be to
use one at a nearby store or business center.

telephones and voice mail in each cabin. Those without individual phones
will have message centers, so you can be reached in case of an
emergency.
