disappointing housekeeping arrogant eye roll
the housekeeping service was quite disappointing. it is available only upon request and cannot be scheduled if you check in during the afternoon. after i requested housekeeping, i received a message that the room still could not be cleaned. i had the option to order any missing items by phone but i received either incorrect items or too few of them. when i inquired again, i received an arrogant eye roll. this was unacceptable, given the hotel's supposed standards.
