I love this feature! I've wondered about this so many times when staying in a very nice authentic historic hotel in an equally historic room, which is very rudely interrupted by a phone and TV. Give me the modern lamp and plumbing for sure, but leave out the rest of the technology please! I go to a hotel like this to get away from modern life.
