Couple things I hate hearing working in a hotel, and the night shift...
Lemme get something straight. This is the largest town in Montana. Yeah, there are a lot of things to do here & there is a lot here. BUT, being the largest town in Montana doesn't mean much after 10pm. The last census put the total of the area at 107,000. Now, that isn't enough of a population to have tons & tons of 24hr restaurants for the visitors. Wendy's stays open past midnight, Burger King is 24hrs, Hardees is 24 hrs, Perkins stays open til 2am, Denny's & IHOP are 24 hrs...and they are spread throughout the city.
The exit the hotel is on, however, has only DQ, McDolands, Subway, Burger King, a Mexican Restaurant, and a Pub next door (that are within walking distance). One of these serves food after midnight (BK). Now, I am very aware that this kinda sucks. People need to realize that I work at the hotel... But what do I hear sooo very often after 10pm as if I can help it???
SCs: There is nothing open!!!!ELEVENTY!!!
They don't want to hear about Burger King, nor places that at still open in the area...cuz OMG they have to drive there or get a ride. Oh & only Pizza places deliver from 10-midnight.
I feel bad for people who merely shipped in for the night & are taking a flight out early in the morning but I can't do a darn thing about the restaurants in the area & frankly all of these people freaking out at me is useless air useage!
Can ya tell is drives me nuts?!

) And terror of all terrors if you want something other than the pizza place next door, the old mom and pop place in the parking lot, the denny's down the road, or the half a dozen fast food places within half a mile, you'll have to *gasp* get back on the freeway (in fairness, the part of the valley that the hotel is in is a bleek dark place with very few 24 hour establishments compared to the rest of the valley, hell the nearest wal-mart isn't even 24 hour, but if you're willing to drive to other parts of the valley there is plenty of 24hr establishments).
