Okay, another quick one. I had just started working at this one particular hotel, and it’s my first or second night training with one of the other desk clerks. I’m (slowly and apologetically) learning to check in a walk-in, when a guest comes down to the desk.
“Can I help you?” says my coworker to the guest that just came down.
The guy looks at the person I’m checking in and says “It’s okay, I’ll wait”.
“I can help you now.”
“Uh…It’s okay, I’ll wait til you’re done”.
This goes on for a minute or two until the guy confesses there’s “a housekeeping issue”.
My coworker presses the guy until he finally just blurts out:
“FINE. THERE’S A LARGE BLACK DILDO UNDER THE BED. Apparently, the housekeeper didn’t check under there.”
The poor guy I just checked in just slowly turns around, puts the keys on the counter, and says “I changed my mind.”
Also, one time, we got a noise complaint. When we went to check the room, we heard what sounded like a domestic violence situation, so we called the police.
Let’s just say that said domestic violence was entirely consensual, and involved, well, an extensive collection of props. Everyone was thoroughly embarrassed, and I ended up moving them to a room with no neighbors.
TL:DR: People do weird shit in hotels.
