I definitely feel for you. About 10 years ago had a few friends who were going to take me out to dinner. I checked-in to a Radisson and went to put my bags in the room. When I tried to leave, the door handle came off and I couldn't figure out how to get it back on correctly. Luckily for me, I still had access to a phone and was able to call the front desk, but it still took about 20 minutes before I could leave the room. My friends were definitely wondering if I were trying to hide from them or something.
