There are many more things hotels should get rid of:
- carpets,
- centrally controlled AC,
- checkout lines.
It baffles me how a cheap motel can get this right whereas the expensive chain hotel across the street can't.

There’s also a lot of people that set the A/C to 18 degrees and leave, which is terrible.
Edit to add: and also keeps the outlets on (charging your phone, ...) and the lights if you so desire...
AC I understand, but I would bet carpets and human service are part of the perceived added value (especially when the expensive hotel crowd would be older).
Also, most high end hotels I have been at have a key drop box at the front desk if you want to just go.
I much prefer hotels with hard surface floors for that reason.

Interestingly, I associate the key drop box mostly with cheap hotels.
