Ha! That's how I felt about the Marriott Short Pump!

Been there - hold the door open till you get your card out!

Not even. They have only had one elevator for over a month. It stops on every. Single. Floor. Have to allow for an extra 10 plus minutes in the morning

Ya it's bad. Also that hotel is full of consultants.

@a2 which only makes the morning rush to the lounge exponentially worse
