Our room wasn’t ready until 5:30pm (whereas we now have been on the recreation) and there have been so many people inside the lobby trying to check in that I was so glad I had the Bonvoy app with a mobile key. Getting an elevator was even worse nonetheless we lastly obtained to our room. (We tried to take the steps nonetheless couldn’t and never utilizing a bodily key!)
In the end all of us showered and watched the Olympics in mattress!
