I typically stay in 2-4 hotels per month and my average review is 4/5. To start with, upon entering the hotel I greeted the man behind the desk and handed him my card. He accepted my card without a word and didn't say anything until he gave me a room key and told me where the elevator is. Okay, quiet guy, wouldn't have thought much of it if the rest of the stay was fine, but not terribly friendly. The room was generally what I expect from a Holiday Inn express - the sink (outside the bathroom) was nice, bed comfortable (though the duvet cover was inside out with the strings dangling around), the best bench meant to put suitcases on ever. The remaining bathroom (toilet and shower/tub combo) was in a separate little room with a door and clearly had not been updated with the rest of the room. Paint was worn off in places/peeling, there were stains on the ceiling and rust from the grab bar, there was mold or mold stains from prior mold around the edge of the tub, there were hairs stuck on the wall by the door, and the toilet had a leak (could always be heard dripping and periodically refilling the tank). However it looked, everything was functional. The real treat came the following morning. Breakfast was fine. At around 9 I went back up to the room and housekeeping could be heard quietly yelling/loudly speaking in the hall and there was a lot of banging which continued until 12 when I left the room/checked out. I later learned that the banging was from housekeeping closing the metal swing security latch thingy (above the doorknob) while the door was open so that they didn't have to use the key to open the door each time they entered a room. So every time they entered or exited a room the door swung shut and banged on the metal latch. The first time housekeeping knocked on my door was around 930. Checkout is typically at 11, for reference, but I had requested late checkout at 12. 1) A male knocked on the door while I was in the bathroom. I yelled that I was inside, but maybe he didn't hear me through the bathroom door. I heard him enter the room, walk around for 10 seconds, then leave as he probably realized the room was still occupied. 2) The second knock came at around 950, from the same male. I yelled through the door that I would be in the room until 12 and he acknowledged this and left. I then placed the "do not disturb" placard on the doorknob and laid down for a post-breakfast nap. 3) At around 1030 a woman entered the room. No knock, no announcing herself as housekeeping, nothing! She came into the room slightly then quickly turned around and walked out before I could say anything (having just been sleeping). I got up and locked all the locks on the door. 4) The fourth housekeeping attempt came at around 1115. This time it was a woman, and I assume it was the same woman from the third attempt. I yelled that I would be in the room until 12 and she did not attempt to enter. I have never had someone enter my room without announcing thems
