==In hotels and motels== Kitchenettes are a common feature in hotel and motel guest rooms and often contain a coffeemaker and a bar refrigerator, commonly called a mini-bar. Some kitchenettes have provisioned refrigerators that have an interior sensor feature used by management to monitor guest use of the refrigerator's contents and thus charge for the consumables, which typically include soda, beer, and liquor.
