The thermostat in my room was apparently stuck and The heat would not shut off overnight. I called maintenance and the front desk several times with no answer. I suffered through the night with the heat when maintenance arrived around 9 AM after I finally got a hold of them he made a comment that it was my fault because I had said it on that, I told him I didn’t. I just tried to turn the heat on and then he commented oh it looks like it’s stuck.
