Just checked in to a room at the Ritz. I found room service dinner, opened toiletries in the bathroom, and the bedding stripped. This seems like a major security issue.

It’s a housekeeping miscommunication. Report it. They’ll be horrified. Ask for another room and some comp (free drinks/bfast) for your trouble and move on.

Yes, not a security issue they just have you a room that hasn't been cleaned yet. Inconvenient, yes.

Guess that room wasn’t ready for you. They should quickly reassign you to another room. Mistakes happen

Good old Ritz St. Louis. Actually one of my favorite small-mid market Marriott properties. In my experience they’re normally pretty good, curious as to how they made this up to you?

@EY3 I’ve frequented both and vastly prefer the Ritz. Service isn’t even close, in my opinion.

I have been given keys to rooms that were already occupied and visa versa. So if you think your hotel room is ever “secured” then I got some bad news for you

like

yeah just go down and tell them that the room they gave you isn’t ready. show them this picture. they’ll probably give you an upgrade or free drinks at least.

For the Ritz, doesn't looks too ritzy. Looks more like the Renaissance.

I may be missing something. What is the security angle here?

not so much for OP, more for whomever the potentially current occupant of the room is
