Cold shower for our honeymoon
I do not ask much when I stay in a hotel: clean sheets, possibility to get the room dark and a shower. You should not take the last one of these for granted if staying at Waldorf=Astoria. 
In addition to basic needs I expected something more when I booked our honeymoon to this legendary hotel but I have to say that I can't recommend this hotel to anyone. Location i great and I even like the old fashioned rooms. But if you get bad service and the shower does not work for a whole week (well, it technically works but you just can't get warm water from there even after waiting half an hour..) those things do not help a lot.
Also they have the crappiest internet deals of all: you take a one week package (more than 100 bucks) and you can't use the same deal with wlan or another computer: it's only the cable or wlan with one computer. :(
