Rooms are stuffy and too hot

I normally stay in this hotel in Birmingham city Centre. Unfortunately, my stay wasn't as pleasant on this occasion. During the night I discovered the air-conditioning was centrally managed and I wasn't able to cool the room. I was also unable to open any window or door, which I have been able to do in other rooms at previous days. This unfortunately made it a very unpleasant day for me.

Lovely hotel on a good location. Air con in room resets to hot temperature at various points throughout the day and night. Came back to room after an evening meal and was set to 27. Set to 18 to sleep and woke up at 3 to find it was heating again at 21. Reported to reception in morning who were fairly nonplused.
