What bothered me of this stay was what was written on my key card:
The hotel wrote my rate on my key card envelope. This isn't the first time a hotel has written my rate on the hotel key. However, this is the first time I have questioned why its there.
Why do hotels need to write down the rate? Do I get better service if I pay more? Worse service if I am staying on points? My guess is that neither is true. Then again why the need?
The reason why I bring it up is that my room was small, elevators ran slow and staff was slow. Not Southern slow. Just, I don't care slow. Every time I looked down at this envelope, I questioned if my stay was worth $159 a night. Especially after I learned that the Hilton Garden across the way street was only $119.
Anyone know the reason for the rate on the key card holder?

That's an interesting point. I always assumed it was there so you knew what rate they had on file and you could question upfront if there was a discrepancy. But they could just do that verbally at check in and avoid reinforcing any possible buyer's remorse.
