Default Hotel Etiquette

Call it what you will, but over the past few months I've been unfortunate enough to be given the motivation to write this thread. My point here is simple enough folks; If you get into a hotel late at night and you have a fun crew or you're just feeling rowdy etc.. please remember that your hotel neighbors are also often crew members many of whom are likely to have early morning shows.

If you want to have a boisterous pow-wow or a loud conversation please do it in the lobby and not in the hallway or in your room at 2am. Thank you.

Take the "do not disturb" down when you leave. You are training housekeeping to knock anyway! I had a "day sleeper" up a while back and house keeping still knocked on the door!

I agree, but it also annoys me when someone leaves their cart at a grocery store on one side of the aisle and stands on the other side trying to figure out what to get leaving no option but to cross in front of them.

My apologies, Whippersnapper!. It's not intentional; it's getting older and more and more farsighted. Someday those aisles won't be wide enough.

When this happens to me i simply put in ear plugs and try to sleep. The next morning at 400 am when i leave i set the alarm for 405 am and turn the volume all the up.

I would just give them a wake up call just before departing the room for an o dark thirty pick up, then call them again from the lobby just before walking out of the hotel. Payback is hell.
