It would seem that the motion-activated thermostats in the guest room here don't accomplish that purpose, since setting the thermostat at 72 does me no good if it shuts off after a fixed period of time - waking up to a thin layer of ice on the inside of my guest room doesn't inspire much confidence, either!

This is my first stay at a Renaissance property - is this something being implemented system-wide?
