Lyft driver delayed picking me up 30 min, resulting in me canceling my ride and asking hotel to call me a “yellow taxi” to get to the airport because it was 5am and all ubers/lyfts were 15 min.

I then get hit with a $180 ride. Marriott website says taxi should be $65. Should I complain or let it go?
