unresolved tv issue small room

the hotel location allowed easy access to the event i attended, convenient.

The tv turned on at 3 a.m. playing promotional material. This happened on two consecutive nights and disrupted my sleep before important meetings, i expressed my concerns to the front desk, but the issue wasn't resolved. i didn't receive any compensation for the inconvenience, disappointing, the room was small, leaving little space to move around, it felt cramped and not very comfortable.
