Experienced a first today during my hotel stay in Minneapolis. I didn't have any cash to leave the housekeeper a tip after my first day, so I just figured I'd give her a bigger tip on the second day. This happens occasionally and I've never thought twice about it. When I went to make coffee this morning in my room, I discovered the housekeeper had dumped all the old coffee grounds from the day before in the clean water reservoir. Since the coffee comes in those little pouches, she had to tear open the old one to do this. Then she unplugged the coffee pot, which was plugged in behind this massive cabinet. It's impossible to plug back in without moving the cabinet out.

Trying to decide if I should just complain or leave her a nice hidden gift myself before I check out today. I'm thinking leaving a bigger tip as I had planned is a non starter.
