Can't disagree with you on that. Also -- and this is a bit of a weird issue but something I notice at almost every Courtyard -- the electrical sockets in the desk and wall lamps are worn and often don't hold a plug well. The sockets on the desk lamps are downright loose and want to pull up out of the lamp (a hazard). This is true even at many newer Courtyards, so I think it's more of a matter of cheap furnishings than old sockets. I'm a technical person by occupation, so I notice this kind of dumb stuff. :-)
