Business Hotels

When you live on the road for long periods of time, you want the place you live in to be nice and comfortable. The last couple hotels we have stayed at have been doing some kind of remodeling. That drives me NUTS.

So here, in Baltimore, we end up, again, the victims of a hotel remodeling. The signs all over the place asking us to, "please excuse our mess while we make things nicer for you" make me want to scream.

To top it all off, this hotels Internet wireless service dies and it takes them two days to get the service guy out here to tell them that a lightning storm toasted the wireless routers. So, we had to go to the Courtyard down the street to use their wireless Internet service. Does that suck or what.

The technician from the Internet provider could not fix our service and yet someone else in the hotel offered to look at the problem and found it to be a bad cable, not toasted routers... problem solved, but not by the people responsible for keeping it on line. That's service for you.
