Staying in a hotel is often one of the perks of traveling. You don’t have to do anything but check in and of course pay. Towels and toiletries are provided, as well as a comfy bed with ten pillows (who sleeps with that many pillows?). If you are lucky, you may even get free newspapers and a good breakfast.
Well, that’s the theory anyway. Sometime, it just doesn’t go as planned…
Today we spurged and rented a room at Embasy Suites. I love to experience their stylish two-room suites with a functioning bar,
two giant flat screen tvs with tons of program channels to choose from as you stretch out on the spacious bed or living room couch,
complimentary cooked-to-order breakfast, plus an added bonus of a too good to be true nightly Evening Reception with complimentary drinks and snacks.
Or... an on-site restaurant if that is to your liking.
Everything was grand until we notices the sun going down and the room temperature hovered at 67° with no increase for hours with the heat activated on the thermostat.
The call to hotel management netted a maintenance man who agreed the heat was not working properly.
However, the hotel was booked full so no other rooms could be had for the night.
To our luck, we found an extra fluffy blanket that came to our rescue for the night.
Everything worked out in spite of a few setbacks!
Life is Good!
