I have had to start doing this... Like if I put up the DND sign It means I do not want to be distrubed, not "please check on me a few hours later to see if I still want service". Have had this happen to me at a local motel type hotel all the way up to the W hotel in HK at a plat... just rediculous.

This. I dont remember anything about any hotel's policy OR DND signs saying they were... "optional" lol.
