Final Answer : A, Explanation :  Miranda's zone of tolerance refers to the range of service quality that she is willing to accept. In this case, the undone bed sheets and presence of cockroaches exceeded her zone of tolerance and therefore she chose to go elsewhere. The other options (delivery gap, zone of intolerance, service gap, and patience zone) are not applicable to this scenario.
