Minor correction: the hotel was the MCM Elegante, not the MGM. Lord knows, there was nothing Hollywood about it nor elegant. I comforted myself the whole weekend by telling myself that it was probably going to be condemned after we checked out.
One member said his wife had Googled the hotel and read there was a theft problem. One first-time Mythcon attendee asked if there was a Mythcon tradition of leaving a wash cloth on the outside door handle to a room as she had found one. Someone else had, as well. (This was very irritating to me as I was preparing to wash my face one night and found we had no wash cloths whatsoever in our room. I found the housekeeping staff, which had been chatting in the hall for over an hour with the cart in the same spot, and asked for 2 washcloths. They only had one.) Someone else found the door to their room open one time, so we were wondering if the wash cloths on the door were a signal of some sort. Another attendee had the tip money left for the maid stolen -- at least the money was gone and housekeeping had done nothing to the room.
