5/19-5/23 1st room: 204 Bathtub still clogged, but dose of Draino cleaner does the trick. Paint still peeling off ceiling. Carpet not vacuumed. Still substituting Maxwell House for Starbucks coffee! All is well till...
Tuesday evening 9:30PM, car alarm going off for an hour, front desk says 911 was called with tow truck on the way, not to worry! 10:30 PM front desk says no, no tow truck was called, we contacted the car owner in a bar drinking downtown in Boston, he should be back in a few hours...relocated away from the noise to:
2nd room: 657 Bathtub has been replaced by a jacuzzi, fancy granite, looks like the installation was suddenly interrupted because of the rough finish surrounding the tub, not quite fully tiled yet. It gets better...4:45AM Wednesday morning, noise from the loading dock! Maria "you are the only person who complains about noise!" we get deliveries all hours of the day and night. Yeah, that's rich, I'm the only one who...
Well, I am up, time to take a shower...the tub turns on all right, but when the diverter valve is switched, NOTHING HAPPENS! This room does not have a working shower, and I'm probably the only person who has EVVVer complained about it, too! Even maintenance/security can't get it to work! Switch back to room 204, ahhh, home again, with no car alarm noise! I can take a nice hot shower once the hot water comes up in about 3 minutes of running the faucet at full blast.
THIS PLACE IS FOR THE MOST PART NOT HABITABLE. STAY AWAY. Oh, the staff are very friendly and cooperative, if you like that deer-in-the-headlights look in the eyes. Don't interrupt the children's Miss-Mary-Mack-Mack-Mack game at the front desk. Ask Maria for a piece of chocolate. The most professional is Mariah. How she can tolerate the other dolts is beyond me. Oh, the gymnasium is for nauseum. The bicep Nautilus machine is broken for at least three weeks. Last week they ran out of paper towels in the dispenser to wipe down the equipment (avoids MRSA) and have not filled it up yet. The attendant is very friendly but should get up off of his ass and clean the dust off the machines. Oh, sorry, maybe that's not in his job description. Excuse me.
