The hotel was very clean as described, however the refrigerator was not working and I had specifically requested a refrigerator in working order for the Insulin I was carrying. When we arrived I noticed the drinks inside were not cold. I turned the temperature to high. We went to dinner in the hotel dining room and the food was very good. When we returned to our room, we got ready for bed and when I checked the temperature of the refrigerator, it was still warm. By this time we are in our night clothes. I attempted to telephone the lobby to let them know about the refrigerator. I must have called them 30 times to no avail. I even called them long distance and no one picked up. At this point I went to the lobby and there were 3 people there. I asked if they ever answered their phones and was told they had answered but couldn’t hear anyone speaking. The gentleman said “sorry”. I asked that they come up and check the refrigerator and he told me that I would have to wait till the morning. I told him this was unacceptable because of my Insulin . He finally asked an older lady to go check on the refrigerator. I also told him the phone was not working. The attendant went upstairs with me and said that the refrigerator or the phone were not operable. She wanted for me to go back down to the lobby and ask for a different room. I told her no. She went downstairs and got the keys for a different room and helped us move to the other room. She first checked that everything was working.
