I know the first year we were in dallas. They had us using tte bar thing as
a refridgerator. We were told to take everything out of there. That thing
kept locking. One of my roommates is diabetic and that thing locked with
her insulen in it.
I think I called the front desk more than once to get them to unlock the
thing.
