This reader contribution just received a confirmed approval! However, note that "continental breakfast" is mentioned on Easyclicktravel, but apparently not on the other two sites. Your mileage may vary on this one. Interestingly, we posted this BRG opportunity a few months ago, and since that time Expedia had dropped the free breakfast from the list of hotel amenities. They replaced it with "complimentary morning coffee". Hmm ... wonder why they did that?
