I rarely complain about anything, and when I do it is always in very mild terms (complaining is not something that comes easily to me). Rest assured that when I spoke to the front desk I did it to let then know that I believe the maid entered without knocking and that 8.20 was too early for housekeeping on a Saturday. If other guests had the same issue then it seems totally reasonable that the front desk should be aware of this.

Furthermore, although I gave the impression of doubt about whether she knocked first, that was just my attempt to avoid the 'how can you be sure?' questions that would have followed otherwise. I had already finished getting dried and collected some things from the room when she entered.



I wish the maid no ill will
