hi everyone. So tonight I am staying in the hotel where I work. Winter storm Kayla's bearing down on us and is supposed to get nasty during the night. Bossman wanted somebody here just in case the roads shut down or someone can't get their car out. I volunteered since I really don't want to be out in the snow waiting for the bus (if it's even running).
because this is an employee's stay to support the business, I get the room for free!the only thing that went wrong is my first room had an adjoining door to one of our Colorado cannabis tour guests. They were not being obnoxious or anything, but sound carries in those rooms. Doors open, that's the point of them. Sound will leak through a doorway in ways it can't through a solid wall. I got moved to another room and was fine.
So if you want quiet, here is a tip: ask the front desk agent if the room you are getting connects to another room, and ask to be put somewhere else if it does.
Also, you can usually make requests when you book online. Type "no connecting doors please" in that happy little box. Request compliance cannot be guaranteed, but you have a lot better chance of getting the room type and location you want if you tell them what your wishes are before you arrive. I go through my list at 9am and assign that day's arrivals, and I start with special requests. People who don't care (or don't seem to) end up with whatever is left.
