If this hotel has only been open a week or two, I'd bet these items are on some contractor's punch list. Or perhaps more likely, the hotel staff doesn't know about the problems because no guest has mentioned them.
It opened the week before I stayed, a week before that parking lot was blocked off and construction vehicles still there (they are still there, just moved so there is parking).
But when you say a checklist-isn't securing the dishwasher basic?
In terms of generalizations, the only one I was thinking of is that Marriott extended stay hotels are better than Hilton ones, in design and build quality.
This hotel has a shower where the knob is directly under the showerhead. However because the shower is not long your hand still gets wet when you turn on the shower. It would actually be better to put the knob underneath the showerhead so your head wouldn't get wet, as it spurts outwards. Marriott does put its knob on the opposite side to the showerhead in Residence Inns but it is so far away your hand doesn't get wet. So, this is just stupid design.
I guess the other generalization is: is build quality worse when it was built during the pandemic?
