Rule 34 always applies… and with that I need to go apply the brain bleach now.
My mother for a while cleaned rooms in a hotel and I had a room mate who was a hotel desk clerk like a year or two ago and they both said this is totally true. Cell phone chargers are the number one things left behind. But yeah, sexy stuff is super duper common.
In the hotels they worked in, they generally keep the non-sexy stuff for a month or so, then the staff takes what they want and the rest gets thrown away. If it’s something they’re sure the owner is going to miss and be concerned about and want to reclaim (prescription meds, eye glasses, wallets, fine jewelry, expensive stuff), they would often go ahead and call them about it. The sexy stuff gets immediately thrown away and they don’t call anyone about it. If you leave your porn, toys, condoms,lingerie, etc. behind when you check out, they’re gone.
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.

Folks, at least have the courtesy to wash them out using the ‘hot water’ setting in the Keurig machine in the continental breakfast bar and leave them to dry next to the belgian waffle maker
