When I arrived to check in, the room wasn't ready. The clerk said that it would be about 10 minutes or so before the housekeeper finished cleaning the room. He then began to walk away. I asked him could I check in while she finished cleaning the room, because I was on a tight time schedule. I was able to go to the room within the 10-minute time frame.
I put my things down and then went to my appointment. Upon returning and preparing to shower, I realized that the number of towels was insufficient. There were no wash cloths or smaller towels. I made do with what I had.
Later in the evening, I attempted to turn on the television. The remote did not work. I had to turn it on via the buttons on the phone. However, I couldn't change the channel or alter the volume. So, I just turned it off and didn't watch television for my entire stay.
Upon returning to the room the next day after an outing, my key no longer opened the room door. The key was never near my telephone or other credit cards. Therefore, there was no need for the key to have been deactivated. I had to ask for the key to be reactivated. I asked for additional towels. The clerk gave me one wash cloth and a bath towel. He said that there weren't any more. They were "doing laundry" and I could get more towels once they were done. It was 4:02PM; there should have had towels available at that time of day.
I usually stay at this hotel since it's near the airport and convenient. However, this might have been my last stay!
