A+ Hotel, but Housekeeping incident

In my previous review, I mentioned some problems with the Wi-Fi—it was pretty unreliable throughout my stay. There was also another incident during my back-to-back visits. It seems like housekeeping doesn't pay attention to the "Please do not disturb" sign on the door, or maybe it's just too small to notice. I got an unexpected visit at a really awkward moment. Apparently, they didn’t realize I was staying for multiple days. I guess I should've used the door's gold handle lock as well. Even though I’m bringing this up, I still tend to leave tips that are above average. It wasn't intentional, and honestly, when you’re a blue eyed masterpiece, it’s not a big deal. Someone reading this might have a different perspective, but I’m not holding it against them. My main issue remains the Wi-Fi. Will stay here again regardless. Still a great hotel.
They should make it bigger for Housekeeping can see.

Everything A+ ,Wifi weakest around

Great trip 👌 Extended it 3 times. So i will have stayed 6 days. I arrived and the Wifi completely down. I told the front desk. Although they are not to blame. It fixed itself for the day. The next day the same thing happened. At times it would drop 1-3 Mbps. Went on the entire trip. Other hotels that come up on this app nearby you will find my reviews. I never mention the internet being an issue The Ramada by Wyndman (formly the Radisson) the The Sleep Inn and The Red Roof Inn have stable Wifi. I don't ever complain in my reviews. I have different complaint about C Inn in my next review. Can't fit it. My favorite Hotel in the area is the The Ramada by Wyndham. Just felt I enjoyed my stays there. The Comfort Inn and The Sleep Inn are owned by Choice Hotels. They have the same breakfast. The Sleep Inn is cheaper and has a pool and better gym (gym is next door in The Ramada). The Sleep Inn also has modern vending machines that can take modern forms of payment. The Comfort Inn has a gift shop that no one is in or is closed. The Sleep Inn is close to a mile away from the Comfort Inn. You can get on the highway easily from both. The Sleep Inn is much quieter. The Comfort Inn is overpriced for the noise and traffic. Pick The Sleep Inn despite the lower ratings. I have stayed in every Hotel in surrounding area for days or weeks at a time in 2018 and 2025. You will find many reviews from both years. I feel the Comfort Inn is just a name like the Holiday Inn. So you pay more.
