I don't know why some people think they can get away with throwing loud, noisy, obnoxious parties in our rooms. It never works out in their favor. Case example being last night.
It's almost the end of my shift, late at night, when I get a noise complaint. I poke my head out the back door, and I can hear and see it a building away. At least half a dozen people went into a room a couple doors down from where the complaint was.
I call them up and inform them of the complaint.
Guest: "It wasn't me, but there's a bunch of people outside near the stairs."
Me thinking: bulls**t!
Me: "Yes, I saw them from the office, and I SAW them go INTO YOUR ROOM. I was able to hear them from the office as well!"
Guest: "Um..er..ah..so they have to leave?"
Me: "This late at night, yes, we ask that all non-registered guests leave the property. Also, if I get one more complaint, we will ask you to leave and you will forfeit your rent."
A few minutes later, some kid comes down.
Guest: "Yeah, I can't get them to leave. I don't know who they are. They just came in to use the bathroom and stuff and now they won't leave."
Me thinking: bulls**t!
Me: "Okay, I'll just call the police then." I took the guy's name (not the registered guest) and called the cops. I told them the guest's story, my interpretation of the events, and how many people I'd seen in the room.
The cops came JUST as I was clocking out for the night, so I stayed a few minutes late to give them the info. As I warmed up my car, I got to see the rest of the events unfold.
When the cops went up there, the people in the room had shut off the lights and were pretending no one was home. I had started to call my relief to tell her to get the police the "special key" to override the deadbolt when someone finally opened the door.
They kicked out 11 people from that room. Understand that our rooms are TINY. I have to stay overnight in the rooms when I'm MOD, and it's a crowd with just a couple other people in there. 11 people is a lot to cram into our room.
As I drove home, I saw the people that were kicked out hanging out just past the property line. They GLARED at me as I drove past. It's a good thing I chose to drive to work instead of walk, and it's good that my CW came in before they got kicked out (she walks to work) because who knows what they would have done to us had they seen our work uniforms.
Housekeeping told me today the room was trashed. They took out two ginormous trashbags full of crap out of that room. We put the registered guest on our "special list," so she won't be renting from us anymore.
On the plus side, they sent the hot cops this time. I love it when they send the hot cops. There's nothing I love more than a good excuse to work with our city's finest!
