The room was clean. We asked to be moved as there was a noisy party in the room directly above ours. The desk clerk promptly moved us. I had just had surgery at UVA and needed a peaceful night. The lotion proved by the hotel had been used prior to my opening it. It was almost empty. Needless to say, I discarded it.
