Good and bad things about hotels

I was thinking : what makes me like a hotel and want to go back ?
And what puts me off?
Things I like
Interconnecting and group rooms
Free coffee refills
Hot chocolate sachets in the rooms
Hotels where you can go to straight to the rooms from the car park
Day use options
And things I don’t like
Key cards to use lifts
Staff with intrusive questions like why has a single male booked a family room ?
A lack of a cafe/restaurant
A total lack of value for money especially doubling the room price at weekends
What are your likes and dislikes ?

Hate that no discount on room if staying on your own.
Room service is usually crap
Love a nice hotel where can chill out and relax
Check out before 12 bugs me

Why do they have to be so hot, it’s like staying inside a volcano, stayed in the new maldron in Cork and they had air con in the room some job.
The showers are great but don’t like when it’s over a bath, have a separate shower tray. |

Love a large shower on its own with enough room for 2
Hate the way single people get the room over the pub or air con units ....always ask to be moved
Love being away from the madness of my house even for a night
Lately love having someone beside me all night |

Staff with intrusive questions like why has a single male booked a family room.... they will always say that! Know that for a fact!
Refills for coffee, tea and other items I really like also a big shower.
One good idea you said is lifts from the carpark to your room would really like that but hotel that have that will always use a key card system for security |

I'm not a big fan of hotels in general. They can be useful for meeting alright but staying overnight is normally just a pain: too hot, too noisy, the bedding is uncomfortable and all those other people....
This just boiled up my city west experience, the hotel factory, awful place...  |

Large beds and that feel of crisp clean white sheets.
Not having to change those sheets after a lady has soaked them.
The knowing but innocent look on the gorgeous young receptionists face when you check back out again at 11pm |

I tell them it’s because I like to give myself treats |

What i like.
Quick check in. Especially the ones where they have your key card ready and say "welcome back Mr. Cave.
Decent batteries in remote control.
Big bed and spare bed 
Good water pressure in a big shower.
Clean crisp linen in beds
Coffee pod machine, I really don't trust kettles.. soo many stories about what goes in them. 
What I hate..
Rooms 2 miles from bar.
Poor generic bar food.
No decent chicken on the menu.(its rare i know)
Im easily pleased |

"Love a good buffet breakfast
Not keen on the buffet breakfast tendens to be cold breakfast served is much better and check out time bugs me too "
Gotta agree on the breakfast, one of the pluses of Covid measures was the breakfast cooked to order  |

The only thing I really hate in hotels are horrible mattresses and poor hygiene. I can live with anything else .
In saying that the things I love when they are available are showers big enough for a few and jacuzzis or jacuzzi baths  |
