Every time I remind myself these stories are taken out of real life experiences…..*shudder*
one day theres gonna be a movie about crazy hotel stuff thats absolutely insane and the title is: FrontDesk: Based on way too many true stories
I work customer service for a tree company and I can tell you these stories do happen. I had to deal with a Karen like that myself yesterday.
Your fashion is fire hun, dayum.
Pretty sure there's a bias when telling a story
Take these entitled women, and imagine they just passed the bar exam to become lawyers and decided to throw a raging party instead of wanting to extend. One of them was really drunk and thought it's ok to assault hotel employees (me) for asking them to keep the noise down. We had to have the police physically remove them. Then they tried to press charges against me for unlawful entry, and claimed I broke into his room and assaulted him. Even though we had several witnesses and plenty of proof, and the right to enter our own property that they were trespassing on, the hotel didn't want to go to court and paid the guy off. That was the most betrayed I've ever felt in my life.
Funny how some people complain about fairness when they're being egregiously unfair to literally EVERYONE else. How about a nice tall glass of self-awareness?
Some people have allergies...
@@mee4062💀
I was going to comment that they didn't know the phrase but yours was so so so much better
@@mee4062My reply keeps disappearing. It shows up then it disappears.
I was going to comment that Karen's don't know the phrase self-awareness but you put it so so so so very much better!
With a side of "suck it up".
Also how those same people would be throwing the fit to end all fits if they came to check in for the weekend concert and were told their room was delayed because someone else refused to get out on time.
They also lost their Monday reservation. They could have left on their own. But, don't quote me, if Security is called for this of problem, they lose their other reservations.
Edit:725? Thanks everyone.
I’d be highly surprised if they were allowed to keep it tbh especially considering WHY they were in trouble
This true, Jess?
Probably had to pay extra for staying past check out time as well.
I was waiting for this ending
I hope so
I think more establishments need security to counter Karen behavior
Yes!
Most do, although they're generally in plain clothes so they blend in. I worked at a JC Penney and we had a 6'2" muscular guy who wandered the store in a t-shirt and jeans and wouldn't announce himself as security unless he had to.
That same security should have been used for the Karen who refused to move after he two day suite upgrade. Maybe it's because these two girls weren't super high elite members.
@@HariSeldon913 While ofc there are different treatments, but that one is more complex... They have all of their reservations in order and being upgraded is their right, AND being granted by the manager, without a written agreement that they need to move at a certain date. It clearly is a mismanagement, and can be claimed as a mismanagement while the guest pretends to be oblivious. Even the general manager said it will end up being a he said she said situation.
Real Karens would have argued that the security guard couldn't touch them, then yelled about how he was going to jail while he was removing them, then tried to sue the police who arrest them after they tried fighting the security guard.
I’d love to see a skit about misbehaving teenagers and their terrible behaviors. We’ve had kids jumping in unison in the elevator resulting in it freezing and fire department being called to rescue them. And them taking all the ice out of machines on several floors to use in ice bucket challenges - their screams resulted in other guests being moved and the kids and parents being evicted. Then last week kids pranked us by dumping all the soil from several huge planters into the pool. The
cleaning, draining , and repairing damaged pumps cost $$ thousands - that made the prank a felony!
God these are amazing for a skit, let's give this comment a boost of likes!😊
liking and replying to hopefully get Jessica to do a skit on that last story!!! Just... wow...
Would loved to have been a fly on the wall when the parents received the billing for the damages on their cc 😂
Had a group of kids stay at a hotel I previously worked at, they decided to jump into the pool from the balcony, there were SIGNS saying not to do that as the pool isn't deep enough. They would also jump off the stairs into the pool, also very dangerous, the lady at reception had to go up to the pool, since she had watched them do it on the security cams, and she ended up being yelled at by one of the chaperones, who told her to tell them if they misbehaved again. If any of these kids had hurt themselves pulling their stupid stunt, the hotel would have been buried in legal fees, especially if they broke their legs from the impact of landing on the bottom of the pool, or, even worse, spinal damage from said thing.
Wow, I thought this was teens on a trip, but you mean kids whose PARENTS are there are doing this?!?
I love guests who try to lock themselves in - not realising that management, security and sometimes even housekeeping all have keys/cards that will unlock any room in the hotel
Just out of curiosity how does that work with the deadbolts?
@gummysnacksandknives9229 either they manually unlock it with a tool/hard push, or they have an E key that can bypass the deadbolt locks.
Working in customer service made me hate the phrase "I'm sorry" because then the customer automatically assumes you are taking responsibility even though you're just expressing sympathy 😅😅
I've gotten very good at the phrase 'while I do feel for you, and wish the situation was otherwise, it is no longer up to me'
Yea i often try not to say that I'm sorry. It's not my fault and there's nothing for me to feel sorry about. It's technical support. Not emotional support. Sorry can't fix everybody's emotions. I have my own too
"I'm sorry you feel that way." Try that one.
@sheekaloca when I worked in cx service, I was a huge fan of "I can see how that would be frustrating. Let me see what I can do for you. "
It helps to know that “I’m sorry” means “I regret that you feel uncomfortable”, whereas “I apologize “ means I was in error and hope you will forgive my mistake.
Ok, so I know absolutely nothing about booking a hotel as I've never done so. However, I feel like if a booking website doesn't have a certain day available, that means that the hotel itself is booked out for those days..
Correct.
Common sense says look for another hotel …
But common sense isn’t that common apparently …
That's how it works, usually...😅
Even if that wasn't the case, you should definitely call the hotel and ask before driving there. Not wait the day of when you could find yourself without any rooms, but again that would require they have common sense
Sometimes hotels don't list all of their rooms on 3rd party ticketing sites, but are reserving them to sell directly (because they don't have to give the booking site a cut). So it might be possible to get a room directly from the hotel by calling, or using the hotel's direct website.
But in this case there was a known event that these guests were attending filling up all the available rooms in this city, so it's likely that all of the rooms will sell out by the day of the event.
Front Desk Manager here - Love these and i have been using them to help train some of my front desk agents for what to do and NOT do. Thanks!!
My favorite NOT do skit is the one where they say the room number and how to get there out loud.
"They can't kick us out, that's illegal or something..." reminded me of a hotel guest that tried to claim protections under my state's landlord-tenant act. He rented for one night, he smoked in a nonsmoking room and partied with people on our 86'd list. No, sir, you do not qualify as a tenant, and that act does not cover hotel guests unless the stay goes longer than a month or so. What melts my noodle is that one of the cops that responded when he refused to leave started ripping into me because *he believed the guest.*
😮
I've noticed that every hotel I've stayed at in San Diego has a notice in the room that says that the maximum stay is 28 days.
“That melts my noodle” is my new favorite expletive 😂
@@user-iv3oz9gq3j Glad you liked it. LOL
@@keendog91 Yeah I was pretty ticked off when the officer came in and started barking at me about "he has every right to sue, how would you like it if your landlord threw you out tomorrow, etc. etc." and I was like, "I'm not a landlord. He rented for one night and he went and shot that chance all to hell by disregarding the terms under which we rented him the room. He is not staying any longer, and he ain't suing me either."
I loved the security guard in this skit. It was like he was excited to be able to kick someone out.
Honestly at this point I'd trespass them and cancel their Monday reservation. Will be funny as heck seeing them scramble to find a place to stay on Monday.
These gentlemen in blue will arrange a place for you to stay over the weekend....
I was thinking the same thing actually
And that trespass should go for any other sister hotels.
@@mirandarensberger6919free of charge!
A funny bit is that only one of them even has a reservation for Monday, the other only managed to get on Tuesday. So even if she didn't get cancelled, the hotel would have to object to having 2 people sleeping in 1 person room on Monday.
I don't understand people. Hey, I want to book the 1st through the 7th. Oh, there's no rooms available on the 3rd through the 5th. I'll just go to the hotel anyway and demand they book me in on those dates when I get there." ??? What is wrong with people.
My assumption was if I couldn't book those dates then the hotel didn't have any room available and I should try a different hotel. Not just show up in a strange city and hope they'll let me stay.
But that's because you're reasonable and not an entitled twit the way these two were.
Something a bit different, but it happened to me that, on a trip with my boyfriend, we couldn't book any double room (only twin rooms were available). We booked a twin room, but at the front desk, when checking-in, I explained to the staff that we actually were looking for a double instead of a twin, but we didn't see any options, so I was wondering if perhaps all the rooms at the hotel were twin rooms or if there were double rooms but just sold out for that weekend. They super kindly asked me to wait for a moment and came back after a few minutes telling me that because of a cancellation a double room was indeed available, and they gave us the option to choose. I just asked a question and they offered me the room we were looking for!!! ❤
Of course I didn't expect that to happen and I was super happy with the result, and I do understand that, however, things like this might happen if you're lucky. What I can't understand is that some people assume that there IS GOING TO BE a cancellation so they will have guaranteed what they want that wasn't available when booking the room. Like, do they also assume they'll win the lottery absolutely every week?? 🤣🤣🤣
If I needed a room for a concert, those days would be my first priority. How someone can gamble on someone else's cancellation is beyond me.
This stories/skits get crazier EVERYTIME.
The sad thing is is that people do act like this and they're not just crazy stories 😭😭
@@LKMNOP Trueee
I once tried to cancel last minute. They told me no more rooms. I went the day after, still no more rooms. So I packed up my shit and left to another hotel. Is that really so hard to comprehend for people?!
In this case, going by their mutterings they couldn't find any other place that had a room because of the concert. But still, as you said it's they're tough luck and they just have to move on. Not the hotels responsibility and make sure you have a place to stay.
Yep I always go to local shelters if no hotel availability and it's free there
"Things tend to work out"--the motto of screw ups through their entire lives.
Either not caring or realizing that things work out for them at the cost of someone else 🙄
Personally, I've always felt like things worked out, when I was actively searching for solutions, and did not worked out when I was just shutting on mmyself hoping they will resolve themselves ^^'
Yep, like "Things tend to work out" is a good cooking motto, not a life one (I tend to just throw random stuff together and hope, I'm usually successful).
The motto of teenagers used to their mommies and daddies constantly fixing their screw-ups.
I'm a "Things tend to work out" kinda guy myself, but I'm also a "Go with the flow" kinda guy so when they don't I let my plans change. However, with thing important to me that I need to work out, I make sure to actually have a backup plan in advance.
I do a murder mystery dinner theater show and we perform at a Hilton Garden Inn. I have become familiar with the front desk staff and am going to show them your videos. I love them and think they will too.
That's nice of you!
In the summer I am flying to Greece to work in a hotel near beach. Looking forward to great memories and hotel drama. I was motivated by this chanel to go. Thanks.😏☺️
Good luck 😉
Good luck! Depending on the average guests it may be pretty good or hell (in my experience as a guest).
Have the best time!!
What area of Greece?
I hope you have fun!
I never cease to ve amazed by the gall of people. My last hotel stay I booked I arranged early check for both rooms (myself and accompanying guest). Was happy to pay extra for that, but staff also went out of their way to put the rooms next to each other. We didn't expect that but appreciated it so much
This has the same energy as the people who reserve 2 plane tickets at different spots in the plane and then demand to sit next to each other
I wonder how many thousands of times Jess has said "I'm sorry" while working at hotels & resorts.
10 to one she says it in her sleep even!
I love this. I had to deal with this the only difference was not only was I front desk but I had to be security as well since my hotel wouldn't hire a security guard claiming we didn't need one.
Oh, honey... my condolences... ❤
That's ridiculous. When you have a bunch of people staying in one building you always need security. And I hope to guide your hotel didn't have a bar. Then you really will need security at some time
No bar but they treated the breakfast room as one. Especially weddings and sports teams. Mom and Dad would get hammered while their little angels who would never do anything wrong ran the hotel causing problems. I would have to work the desk, do laundry, play security, and deliver everything from towels to refrigerators all by myself. It was a lower end hotel of a major chain but it was franchised owned and the franchise was cheap as hell.
@@kenthawkins5558 I sympathize as that's the situation I'm in at my hotel too. During my swing shift, I'm the only employee on the entire property, which includes three buildings, one of which has three floors. Most nights I'm maintenance, security, housekeeping and bellboy as well as trying to keep an eye on the front desk. It can get hectic, especially on the weekends when major events are in town like the fair, rodeo, weddings and races.
As someone who works in reservations, I can attest, that guests try that already before they arrive at the hotel.
They would book for a third party website and then call directly and ask, if their reservation can just be extended by another night, because “it did not work on website xy and I hope you can help me”
Ugh I hate these guests.
That actually seems somewhat reasonable, they at least call rather than showing up and expecting it.
@@boilerfan18 Oh no, they still show up and expect it because they conclude that the person on the phone was some kind of idiot who didn't know what they were doing. Then when the onsite agent repeats what the phone agent already told them, they usually _still_ question it and try to use their "insider knowledge" that we always have a few rooms set aside "for emergencies". When that inevitably doesn't work, they beg to pay full price and be put into an out of order room, they don't care why it's out of order.
@@boilerfan18 Not all guests know this, but as a rule of thumb, if you book third-party, then your agreement is with that third party, and you can only talk to them. The hotel (airline, etc.) can't do anything about it, because it's not their agreement to modify.
Another way to think about it: The third party has booked a block of rooms in advance for some pre-negotiated rate, and is then reselling those rooms to you. The hotel is just responsible for handing out keys and such, they don't get to decide who stays in those rooms on any given night. (The actual terms of these third-party agreements will vary, so it's not necessarily _exactly_ like booking a block of rooms in advance, but it usually looks pretty similar to that.)
And also it’s hard to extend your stay through third parties, right? I feel like she said that on another video somewhere.
@@LilliKitti529 The short answer is, you can't extend; you have to make a whole new reservation if you're going to stay longer. How it works is, you pay the third party, then they generate a one-time use "virtual credit card" that only has enough money on it for the room rate and tax for your stay, then the card number stops working the day after you check out.
As security for a hotel, that was easy. Try having them refuse to leave, PD arrive and breaking door down because they've barricaded themselves in so room door destroyed, bathroom door too because they've barricaded themselves there next. Then call the hotel weeks later requesting refund because stay was super stressful because we called PD...
They seriously requested a refund after all that?? Wow, the nerve of some people, I'll never understand that. (I hope they were charged damages for those doors!)
Maybe it's just me, but the two ladies look kinda like Anna and Elsa-
Funny you should mention that.... 😂
Frozen came to mind for me as well in this skit.
These ladies should have just accepted the situation and “let it go” lol
These wigs need to be reused, don't they ?
YES! 👍🏾
The finale reminded me of something I witnessed at the waiting room of a hospital emergency room. A guy was causing some kind of huge scene. Finally a security guard showed up. He was well over six feet and looked like he could play the entire defensive line for the Detroit Lions all by himself. He asked if there was a problem.
Turns out, there wasn't one.
Yes, people pushing their weight around always push around people smaller than them.
@@LKMNOPif people behaved we wouldn't have to hire the big guy. If it takes a giant standing over you to get you to act civilized then you should probably reflect on yourself.
We went to check in to a room and the people in the room that was supposed to be ours wouldn’t leave. Fortunately they weren’t completely booked so we ended up with an upgraded room. It’s absolutely wild to me that people even consider doing it.
Oh I know those types.. our flight is at night so we need late checkout...We are nice, so even with a full house I give them an extra hour to rest and offer to keep their luggage. Then housekeeping calls that they still have not vacated the room or even better hade the DND sign on the door knob. Yes 90+ apartment properties at multiple locations within the city, you are the only one at the desk and on each of the residences there is only a housekeeper. LOVE THAT....
At the hotel I work at we have one weekend every year that is fully booked on January 2nd the year before. And we top the waitinglist at 100. When we open up for bookings on january 2nd it takes 35 minutes to fill those 261 spots. for a weekend that is 18 months later.
Still we have people who calls and insist they get on the waitinglist for this years weekend. Because they are sure they are getting a room.
I was working in Memphis TN while my home was in Minnesota, and I really wasn't familiar with how popular college football games are in the Fall. I was somewhere in Iowa when I tried to find a place to sleep. The hotel i stopped at was absolutely full but the person at the desk offered to get me a room at a hotel they also ran about 30 miles away. It was a good solution to my problem.
I’m loss prevention at a grocery store.
Usually if they steal something small I tell them
“Give back the shit, or I trespass you. What’s it gonna be?”
Lol at one point in my life i was a homeless teenager (my "parents" were violent drug addicts) so id often steal food, tampons, face wipes stuff like that. One time i was caught stealing a lil box of tampoms and i think it was a redbull and an apple. The store person said that to me and i just said "tresspass me then cause im quite literally starving and bleeding through my underwear" then i started crying. The manager then came and she knew something was up and i told her my situation. She then paid for my stuff and offered to drive me to school each day (it was the morning and i was still doing my best to attend highschool)
@@willowtree2793
There’s programs to help. I’ve given homeless people struggling the business card of charity programs that can help them.
@@willowtree2793
Ask for help. Don’t steal. One will get you a better answer.
@@willowtree2793that manager was an angel, I hope you're in a better situation now. This is probably the reality for a lot of people out there too. They steal because they *have* to, not because they *want* to.
Beside all... they were there for a concert in the weekend and the plan was to stay closed in a hotel room for all the weekend?
An evil masterplan...
I imagine they would have left once the concert was on
@@purpleisdebeste I don't think so, because they wanted to stay at Monday too :/
@@fiathla yeah at first, but once they bolted the door the plan had to be to go to the concert and go home asap after
@@purpleisdebeste maybe. Anyway, not a treat plan 😂
This happens everytime we have a big event on in the town and all accomodation is fully booked.
"But we're already here! It's not faaaaaiiiirrrrr!!!" You know what's not fair? Pre-paying for a room, and being promised that you'll have a room, then traveling for hours on end just to be told you don't have a room. THAT'S not fair!
I had to book 2 different hotels over the summer because there wasn’t any places that could accommodate the entire reservation dates. If you are going for an event then so is probably everyone else.
This is one of your best skits. The different personalities, the clothing, logistical issues. More like this, please!
I love the random objects being used as a telephone. That’s so funny!
I’m so glad the full skit is here I’m so invested 😂😂
That knocking made me think someone was knocking on my doors, both the front AND the back! LOL
This has happened to me. A hotel told me that they didn't have my last day available. I found another hotel nearby-ish and moved hotels for the last night. Of course I kept asking at the front desk and it simply didn't happen for me. That's why I made other plans to cover myself.
And we were also just on a trip and asked for a late check out upon arrival. We were told from the beginning that it wasn't possible so we adjusted our plans to account for the extra hour we needed ourselves. They stored our bags for that hour and we ate at the restaurant and we were able to retrieve our bags when it was time for the airport shuttle. Easy.
I know it was different scenarios, but if you can't get a late check out or extension you have to figure it out yourself. You don't get to whine to the staff.
Back in my backpacking days I booked a hostel in NYC online and completely overlooked on the confirmation that they had excluded one night... that was no fun finding an alternative for one night... just to find out that my bed stayed empty. but yes, I did go and book another room and came back. so sad that some people are this crazy.
Oh my gosh I love your videos. I work at a hotel and I watch them before my shift and it brings a smile to my face
We need more security guard character to make it more realistic 😂
'Am I good to go?' Never started laughing so fast before!
Jessica, it's been great watching your channel evolve and your skills develop. I HOPE you have plenty more stories to share.
That blonde wig with the pearl headband is GORGEOUS on you!
Co-worker had a similar incident,they said the hotel overbooked, I say they screwed up the reservation. But anyway the coworker was smart and looked for another place. Saw on Facebook that a cousin was going to the concert too and ended up staying with him at his hotel. Love your videos!
I'm a complete chaos-head, but even I get anxiety by the thought of going anywhere for like a week and not having figured out my stay during that week. How do people go through life like that???
Flash backs of my job as a guest service agent/ night audit. The worst is check ins that try to get in at absurd hours like 2 amAnd I will ask you to leave or be removed by security
If my flight/travel offers no other solution, I will be one of those people, but it's always included in my reservation information. so an extra night and late check-in. If a hotel can't accommodate that I'll look for a self checkin place.
this reminded me of a time in our bed and breakfast in a very (!) rural area in another country. By rural I mean the nearest city was 2 hours by car away through the jungle. We had some people who wanted to extend their stay by two days during peak holiday season. when they booked we had told them that we could book them only for x days but they wanted x+3 . My dad was very clear on it. sorry, we have other people booked for those days. they thought they could just bully us and stay anyway and refused to pack stating they had train tickets only three days later. They went on a walk and my dad had me and the staff go in and pack and place their belongings outside. Boy, they were MAD!!!! None of the other b& bs in town had vacancies, what were they to do? My dad got them to the train station and told them that was all he could do. they slept for 1 day in the train station (it's horrible there) and then a kind villager took them in. They had the gall to complain about the food and sleeping on a cot. The cot the villager vacated for them so they could sleep there while he and his family slept on the floor. I think being told No was just foreign to these folks.
I love your skits!
I love these skits!
I dont know why people do this. If we don't have the rooms we don't have the rooms. I'm not in the business of hiding rooms. It's my job to sell them. The entitlement. Lol
EXTREMELY well done! Very realistic self-rationalization :)
Love your skits : keep on truckin’!
Hi Jessica I love ur videos!!! Been watching for a few months!!
Absolutely brilliant Jess 😀
The fact that anyone would even do this is just 🤯
I've been fortunate that the days I've requested to extend our stay that our room or a room was still available. I can't imagine actually acting like this, though! It's crazy that people actually think like this. Hotel staff really are amazing for putting up with this type and beyond.
Incredible! Can't believe it's it's the same person! Nice FX! This is Spot on!
I am so glad I worked at a hotel for only a few short weeks. I was a bellman (I guess bellhop was no longer the right word?) back in the 1980s. I do not miss it.
I think Bellhop nowadays be more acceptable than Bell man in case the bellman is a woman. And bell woman just sounds stupid. I don't know though maybe they have a totally different title now. Like, server instead of waiter or waitress. Great now I'm going to wonder about that till I find out.
I just looked it up and they still say bellman instead of bellhop. Or internationally it's Bell Porter. Why don't they just call them porters??
The second I heard they barricaded themselves in the room I would’ve just immediately called the police and not notified anyone else
Unbelievable! I agree with you, it makes me shudder
I adore that red and blond wig!!!
Remember kids, the hotel owns the door, they know how to open it
I can so relate to this, even tho I work at a large Hotel in germany. There are so many topics to cover that no one would believe who hasnt worked front and backoffice. I still had faith in humanity when I started doing this 25 years ago.
Jessica-- I ❤ ❤ ❤ LOVE all th different characters you play; all the different 💇 hair styles, wigs, accessories.. keep up the splendid work!! 😊 Amy.. York, South Carolina
I'd leave too, that security guy is scary. 😨
I love these stories. They're so funny! ❤
I work night audit at a hotel and your soooo spot on - you should do one about annoying ppl that want liquor after hours
I've seen her do one of those, actually. She did it as a short, not too long ago, I think
Edit: Okay, I'm not seeing it in recents, but I do remember seeing it not too long ago.
@@proudpatriot6567yep, she did do one on that. And the guy wouldn't take no for an answer.
And now that security has the room... I'll be watching a movie! :P
I love this too much 😂
Finally---a complete story!!!
Thanks for the memories. I used to do Casino Security, and we had a tool to open a deadbolt door, good times 😂
I've never been this early! Love your content Jess!!
I like all of your varied "phones" 😂
I’ve lived through this - quite accurate
We're going to a 4 day/weekend convention in an airport hotel and the convention link to book at their rate wasn't working for me (it kept saying no rooms available, even though registrations had only JUST opened up - possibly because I'm in another country?) So we rang the hotel directly and they were able to get us booked in for our entire 2 week stay - but at different (in some cases much more expensive) rates for each night, with three different confirmation numbers (before, during & after the convention). I emailed the convention hotel liaison and she said that I had actually spoken to hotel call centre and I should have gone to get first (I did but she didn't understand that the convention link wasn't working for me) but then a week later she came back with a booking for our entire stay bar the last 2 nights on the convention rate. Yay! (The last 2 nights are twice the price but worth it to but have to move hotels, in my opinion.)
I really enjoy your videos and skits
The housekeeping reporting that the door was deadbolted reminded me of the game Breach and Clean. "HOUSEKEEPING!!!" *boom*
Had a guy on a business call refuse to leave at his already late check-out time just this week. :'| When we knocked he said he was going to "wrap it up soon". Luckily we weren't sold-out, so I assume he just got slapped with a fee and I got to go home, but it was irritating all the same. Check-out times aren't suggestions!
And this is why, one year in advance of the eclipse, I booked a hotel in Austin, actually two, for an entire fortnight just so I could be there rested and well for that Monday.
"things tend to work out" you and I have had very different life experiences. I've found even with a perfect plan, things still tend to go pear shaped half the time. 😅
Oh wau, i didnt expect the housekeeper costume to look so good. There's just some weird charm to it
You got to love the security guard!😂👍
This was every weekend over ski season for me, minus needing to call security... lol
This last weekend, we had a rodeo and a marathon foot race in town, and every hotel in the area had been sold out for months in advance (both are major regional events that occur every year) and even on Wednesday I already had people pulling this exact same "Can you push me through the weekend? The website wouldn't let me..." crap. Just like in the skit, I had to explain in painful detail that, no, I can't do that, why I can't and no, these events never have cancellations because the people coming in have been planning for this since _last year._ I even had a few try to guilt me by boohooing about sleeping in their car all weekend to which I just half shrugged and said, "Well, at least this spring weather will make that a little more comfortable." As much as I wanted to, I didn't add "The Big 5 across town is having a camping tent sale if you're interested," as that might have been a bit too much.
Jessica, you are the best.
Recommend to find alternative accommodations my recommendation is spend a lot of time at the pool and bar
I went a convention that had an indoor area that had real grass and plants . A twenty something year old (as in NOT a teenager) let loose a bunch of LIVE crickets. I can imagine how angry the hotel staff must have been.
Thanks for this ...I actually booked for six days and like the hotel staff started to get really friendly and also I felt like a celebrity
That security guard looked like he wanted option 2 xD
This is better then I thought it would be.
Thanks!
A hotel can throw you out, without refund, for nearly ANY reason. Raised voice, swearing, threatening other guests or employees.
The police can be involved at any time to have you trespassed from the property. Defrauding a inn keeper(i.e. trying to steal services without payment) is a federal crime.
You can be banned from a property and even an entire brand.
I love the housekeeper's outfit.
well if it is an event there is probably no other hotels available... recently i had to go to an meeting in a city and there were no hotels available anywhere. only ones were like 50 km from the venue or 6x the price of a normal night. ended up in a horrible hotel on the 4th floor without a lift.
Great and funny video, however the only thing my ADD mind could focus on the first two watches was on her wig...is that the Anna wig from her days as a Disney princess??? 🙈🤣🤣🤣
