Free Food In Your Room!
I just love it when I get into my hotel room, and the refrigerator is stocked with all kinds of goodies. There are so many things to choose from, I especially like the candy bars, and I like the idea of putting little nips in the refrigerator with in reach of small children. I wonder who thought of that great idea.
It’s too bad that the things I love to eat and occasionally drink cost so much money. Why don’t they clearly post the prices, I don’t like seeing an extra $1,000 appear on my credit card. In some hotels, they don’t even post the prices on the food and drink items, so we can really be surprised.
On the other hand, who wants to go out late at night for a box of cracker jacks, a bag of chips, a coke, or a bit of rum to go with the coke? That is what the hotel is counting on; most of the food consumbed is between 9:00 pm and 7:00 am. If I leave in the morning with out stopping at the check out desk, I can be assured that the extra charges will appear on my credit cards next statement.
This raises another question, what if the made decides to tie one on at my expense, how do I prove it. What if they have no money for lunch, and they eat all of the cheese and crackers. With room rates coming down because of the recession, hotels need to find other ways to make up the losses, but at whose expense.
I have an idea, why don’t they just eliminate the room refrigerators all together, or provide me with a key card to open the thing. At least that way, I will know when I am spending my money.
Hotel rooms
~Do you ever wonder if hotels change the sheets from the person who stayed in the room before or after you?
How would you feel, pulling down the covers, climbing in, and oops, you find a sock down by your feet, or better yet, a big fat sticky stain, write in the middle of the bottom sheet. How would you feel?
How would you feel if once you checked out, the bed was made, but not changed, and along comes the next person, checking into your old room. Just think, they will un-knowingly get bombarded by your sweat, your drool, your germs, just think?
If the beds are changed every day, as promised, then conduct a test for yourself. Put a sock way under the covers, and see if it is still their later the same day, after the bed has been made. Just think?
