Why don't housekeepers report maintenance issues when they are cleaning a room? I've found problems in my room in 4-5 star hotels in different chains. I can understand housekeepers not knowing about burned-out light bulbs if they hadn't turned on those lamps, but they would have to know about a sink draining so slowly the water backs up while washing hands. The latter problem happened this week. As a guest, I expect this kind of problem to be taken care of before I check in. (Rant over.)
