  • Sorry we don't care THAT much

    Had a guest come down and complain about noise on Saturday night. Oh but he didn't think it was his neighbours fault. Apparently it was our fault as we have carp sound insulation ( I admit we do) so why we put a couple next to a group of 4 people. To quote him "you know if people are coming into *city* you should know they are going to go out and have some drinks and be up late" I should note when he turned up he was first told his room wasn't ready then told "oh we have a different room you can have" and he would have been happy to wait for his original room but took the one that was ready instead.

    1. People book online we don't know what they will be like until they get here.
    2. The room was booked as 2 people
    3. If people talking keeps you awake (they where having a normal level conversation) maybe consider bring ear plugs something
    4. I looked up his original room, it was the other side of the noisy room.
    5. Doesn't that imply you should have gone out for drinks.

    Normally i would't mind, i know our sound insulation sucks but he wouldn't stop going on about why would we put him next to these guys. I work night audit I have zero say over room allocation.

    Offered to give him a second room for the night which he took but then still thought he should be owed compensation for it. In the end, due to major co worker muck up, he got both his room and breakfasts comped.

    Sounds like your contractor was a little fishy.

      I see what you did there.

      I've been to plenty of noisy hotels. Sometimes it's from the outside (e.g. in the middle of a city, it can be noisy), sometimes it's from really rambunctious guests who insist on running around the hall... in fact, I've come to expect my hotel room to be noisy, and none of it is the hotel's fault. I don't like ear plugs, so I just take an extra pillow and sleep with it over my head.

      Me: Sounds like a job for Gravekeeper!
      Fiancee: What?!
      Me: Nevermind.

        Maybe they didn't fillet properly

        ETA: This thread will likely turn into a series of fish puns. Hopefully we dont get told to Reel it in.....

            sorry normally I don't make fun of typos but that one struck me as funny.

            And unless they specifically asked for extra quiet how are you supposed to know who to put them next to or not?

              Typo? I saw the OP is in New Zealand, and thought it was a saying from there.

                I thought it was a self-imposed censored typo at first...
