I would have to say that all in all there were a number of problems this
year with the "facilities management".

First was the construction work during the first day of presentations.
That was handled thanks to the USENIX staff.

Then there was the "bar inventory" which closed the billiards room/bar
at (I think it was) eleven-thirty.  The manager of the bar was rather
amusing [I never heard so many poor excuses before] as were the two
goons in suits waiting by the exit to ensure everyone left.

I missed the other bar closing.  It sounds pretty good :-( :-(.

I only heard about the "hottub" problems second hand but I doubt that
the management was responding to any guests' complaints.  They just seemed
to enjoy giving people a hard time.
