1. Don't get me wrong, the room was very clean and the bed was sumptuous, but overall it seemed like it was overdue for a refurb.

2. I know that often if something is wrong it's not their fault.

3. Very young, and clearly in need of training (they mastered 'Hello Mr ____' whenever I walked by, a curious feature of upper level American hotels which always leaves me unnerved - what's wrong with 'sir'?).

4. As this is an old hotel I was worried that the room would be cramped and out of style it was a pleasant surprise to find that that assumption was wrong.

5. There are a couple of things I think are important to note for those people who like to know what went 'wrong'.

6. We decided to make the best of it, because clearly telling the apathetic staff at this hotel that anything is wrong is a waste of energy.

7. They wrote the wrong room number on the envelope with my key and I could not get in.

8. Don`t get me wrong it isn`t a holiday inn, but if I hadn`t found such a good rate at this hotel and had paid $350 a night I would have been extremely disappointed.
