I would say when there is not a worthless clock next to your bed you know you have A++ accommodations.

Has a microwave oven I can move to the bedside stand so I can see the time when I wake up.

Don't have one. But even if I did, it's easier just to glance up at the micrwave for the time than to fumble around in the dark for a cell phone.

A lot of the hotels I’ve been in… the microwave getting moved is no easy task… they usually have it tied down.

That's why I seldom stay at 5 Star hotels. The working class places usually provide a clock for their guests. Truckers and other workers have to be back out on the road early in the morning.

And they all own phones.

Maybe some of them do. But after a long day on the road it's more convenient just to glance at a clock to see the time instead of groping around in the dark for a cell phone and their glasses.
Most of the truckers use CB radio, but the rig stays in their truck overnight.

A trucker shouldn't be out on the road until he or she has logged the proper hours off work.

That's exactly why they need a clock.
And that's why you don't see a lot of big rigs parked outside the Waldorf Astoria.

They all have phones. Literally all of them. It’s a job requirement.

Is it also a job requirement that they must never ever look at a real clock?
Of course, luxury hotels don't want to subject their guests to the sight of a clock. They also don't want to subject their guests to the sight of a working class guy in the lobby or in the dining room.

No but they would not flinch just as if they were in the sleeper berth.
