Broken telephone and …

#1. On the second day, a housekeeping person knocked and entered at 9 pm, stating that the cleaning has not been done. However, cleaning has been done early afternoon. I was shocked somebody came to my room after I went to bed. #2 Telephone did not work. #3 The first reception person did not advise me availability of airport limousine nor alternative way (Grab).
