    1. FAKEOUT! The hotel has partnered with Westlake Dermatology and Cosmetic Surgery and does have a new plastic surgery center, but it is not offering any packages that include treatments… yet!


    2. FACT! The discount will be available at 20 participating properties in Hawaii from August 1 to December 24, 2012.


    3. FACT! The girl, who dons pigtails and a pastel gingham dress, even knows each of the hen’s names as well as their breeds. The fresh eggs are sold on Saturdays and Sundays only at five bucks per half dozen.


    4. FAKEOUT! Free meals will be offered to fasting taxi drivers only. In the hotelier’s own words: “This is our way of saying thank you to cab drivers who work tirelessly throughout the year to provide transportation services to our guests and in support of our hotels”.


    5. FACT! The hotel also offers in-room bartender services upon request for those who want to enjoy a Primehouse Bar-quality cocktail in the privacy of their room.
