Great hotel, poor complimentaries!

Great hotel, nice large comfortable room with spacious bathroom. Breakfast was great, with a good choice. Centrally located hotel, which was super for us as first time visitors to the city. Only questionable issue was the $40 add-on at checkout. When l asked what was that for, was informed it covers the “complimentary” bottles of water given to us and the discount given to us for any in-house food and beverages. How can these be “free” if we are being charged for them?
