Shower head was broken. Told the manager. Found out my partner had the same problem in another room. They know. They aren’t making repairs.

DoubleTree by Hilton Wilmington, NC
Room was fine and clean. Walls are paper thin - could hear the next room’s alarm clock and a guy yawn. Mattress was very hard and springs squeaked when I rolled over. I heard everyone leave and let their heavy doors shut starting at 4:30am.
