| - Just stayed here recently for 3 nights and in 3 different rooms. That sounds like a whole lot of nonsense, who needs 3 rooms for 3 nights you might ask? Well we did apparently!
First night we check in, room looks nice, granted it is super dark in there and the best you are going to get light wise is Just barely enough that you dont walk into a wall, but not enough to prevent you from poking yourself with a mascara wand if youre trying to do your makeup in the bedroom. Everything is handled by a fancy shmancy digital device that tells your room to close the curtains or turn on the lights! Woooow ... It would be pretty cool if it functioned correctly and we did not spend 2 hours like crazy people pressing different buttons trying to shut off the guy playing Jazz on the TV every time we pressed the Goodnight button on the machine. Ok, so fast forward to somewhere around 4 am I wake up and its HOT, not just a little bit warm turn the air down and go back to sleep, but like dude who turned the heat on, I feel like menopause came too early I want to crawl into a tub of ice hot. I sleepily stumble over to the thermostat and it reads 65! You filthy liar, it was not 65..... I mash the buttons until it sounds like the cool air is blowing again and make my way back to bed.
Wake up in the morning and its still HOT. The AC is now making grumbling noises but nothing is coming out of the vent. Lovely, I will call the maintenance people and they will fix it! I call down and let them know of the problem and the lady assures me maintenance will call me asap, please wait in the room! 1 hour later a lady name Trish, tish, Something like that calls me and says you needed someone for the AC, Yes Ma'am I did .. so I am sending someone to you, great I will be here! I wait patiently .. I want to take a bath and get ready, but Trish has told me someone is on there way and I did not want to be in the middle of a bath while someone is coming to fix it. So I wait, watch some tv .. flip through the magazines .. tick tock, tick tock, its been 3 hours, in vacation time, thats Forever. I call back and as I am on hold I hear Knock Knock on the door! Hallelujah, hes here!
I open the door and Surprise .. its the phone repair guy!! You must be thinking what is he going to do with your AC, right?! Me too! He says HI I am here to fix your phone .. and I am like great, but uh can you fix my Air conditioning cause That is the problem? Nope .. so he leaves and I call back down and explain that I have been waiting for 3 hours for someone to fix our AC and not getting ready and wasting my awesome vacation, the lady gives me the usual I am so sorry, I will call maintenance now personally and then they will call you asap, please wait! After another 30 minutes or so, I call back and ask so when were they suppose to call me? She says oh no, did Trish not contact you?? Clearly not lady, now she reassures me a second time she will call her directly! At this point it is about 4 in the afternoon and our whole day has been wasted waiting, I just tell them to cancel it, we want to get ready and go out and will deal with it later.
Get back at night, still HOT, call and ask to change rooms, much to their huffing and puffing, they assign us a new room, awesomeness! He tells us its a "wedge" room.. unsure what that means we just nod and go. We get to said wedge room and this is basically a tinier oddly shaped version of the regular room. The biggest difference is that if you want to wind down and watch some TV as we did, you had to stand in the middle of the room! The TV was mounted in a way that you could not see it from the bed nor the sitting area, so the only way to watch was to stupidly stand in the middle of the room gawking at it, wondering why no one thought to put the seating there. Well I love to watch TV at hotels, it is a thing. I do not have cable at home because infomercials are my weakness. I could watch them all day long, true story, so when I go to a hotel, I like to get my fix of those horrible goodies. I call the front desk again and explain that I cannot get my fix, So we upgraded to a city view room! Awesome, which meant, having to drag ourselves, food and luggage down the elevators Again and switch elevator banks and go back up, is the 3rd time going to be the charm? I hope so!
We walk in, its hot, so I go and click the AC on and Bam it sounds like a SUPER loud motor .. I groan and grumble and think omg are you serious!?! Call the front desk and thank them for the upgrade, but could they take back the complimentary noise please, it sounded like a machine from the 80's cranking out air on its last leg of life. I was so tired at this point I said can I just have ear plugs .. well No ear plugs in housekeeping or a gift shop!
TL;DR -- Just don't do it, unless you are too drunk to notice anything or enjoy waking up in a sauna.
