Something's missing

These are little things... but at least for me they are important:

*Having the zip out checkout system through the t-v in your hotel room work. It really can be a pain in the cat's tail when you are rushing to check out and the system is not working saying "Sorry, you must go wait ina long line to check out." So I end up calling the front desk and checking out.

In fact: my most recent stay at the NYC Millenium Hilton says "You can zip out checkout by checking otu channel 20. I go there... no button for zip out.

*I wish the hotels would start putting those little bottles of mouthwash and bubble bath in the bathrooms again... I hate carrying my big bottle of mouthwash and I lik eto have clean breath. And sometimes I like taking a hot bubble bath. The Millenium Hilton had Neutrogena Bath something and I assume it's bubble bath.

*MY BIG ISSUE: LEAVING A 'DO NOT DISTURB SIGN ' SO I CAN PUT IT ON THE DOOR. I can't earn frequent sleeping miles when housekeeping bangs on the door so early.
I bring this up because once upon a time, in my first trip to Hong Kong, the flight was in five hours late, I was fried so I went to the hotel, checked in, went tot my room, stripped, flopped on the bed and was off earning double snoring points in seconds.
Then early in the morning I in half sleep see this little shadow in a white dress running around the room, I sit up and it's this housekeeper who's probably no more than 18 or 19. I screamed, she screamed, they brought security and she said "Oh you forgot to put the do not disturb sign on the door.
It's not nice to wake the CATMAN out of his beauty sleep. I can be a real tiger!
