We bought two very cute battery operated mid century modern style alarm clocks - one for each apartment. I kept finding them in weird places when guests had left (in drawers, in the kitchen etc) and realised that no one was using them. One small reason for them being moved could be that they tick but I think the main one is that guests preferred to charge their phones on the bedside tables and use them as alarms/clocks.
As we all do, yes? I can’t remember the last time I owned and used an alarm clock.
