By shortage, I meant that more rooms should be designated nonsmoking so they wouldn't sell out faster--or, if that would cause you to lose money because you might get spurts of demand for smoking rooms, maybe rooms that are normally NS but cheaper because they handle occasional overflow smoking.
I second that Frederick Douglass quote--unfortunately, so do a lot of SCs.

We've had rooms like that set up before, and before busy days, we go in and have the housekeepers pick them apart to get them ready for anybody who might come in. That way if you have to sell them as non-smoking you can, or if you need them as smoking, no harm no foul.
Out of our more than fifty rooms, we have nine smoking rooms total. I wish we could go completely non-smoking, but we get a lot of construction crews whose members apparently can't function without a cigarette between each finger. When they can even stink up the hallways even through a closed door, you know someone's got a serious problem.
It's always fun when the chain-smokers collide with the snobs from more enlightened areas of the nation.
"In Florida hotels don't even allow smoking." is something I've heard on more than one occasion, although typically when someone's saying that I'm transfixed on their nostrils because their noses are so high in the air that it's impossible not to stare.
hey haunted, you know that avatar was slightly pulled from hystoria? (cancelled WB cartoon) It was a rundown of Henry V's six wives. The last one made him sign an agreement forbidding him from divorcing or beheading her.
