You know when you have spent too much time in hotels……

[dlockers]

You know where the local restaurants the hotel has discounts with without asking.
You select hotels based on reward points rather than cost / quality.
You have a pre-packed toiletries kit.
Your phone automatically logs into the wifi no matter what chain you are staying at.
When you're handed your key they don't even think to ask 'have you stayed with us before'

The reward point drug is a hard one to get off. If it wasn't for COVID I can't imagine my life right now!

Check for hidden cameras.

I just wear a balaclava. Spy Cams don’t work on me then

Also this is a good indicator:

You hang a mirror the furthest part of the room to a plug point.

Can you explain this one?

Can you explain this one?

Hotels have the hairdryer plug illogically far from the mirror.

They also have the nearest phone charger farthest from the bed.

A bit like Stockholm syndrome but for your hotel nuance.

You have learned to live with the fear of waking up to Lenny Henry beside you.....

You have to remember which country you're in for a brief moment when you wake up.

You take a sandwich bag for the remote control

You have to remember which country you're in for a brief moment when you wake up.

And have zero idea what the local time might be.

I don’t use a hairdryer or straighters. Those who do, such as my mum, say that the plug points and mirrors are hardly next to each other. The hotel supplied hairdryer isn’t much cop.

Though mum will be impressed with the hotel room im in as by a mirror has a plug point.

The tea/coffee point will always be midway between the nearest cold water tap and a mains outlet.

Whomever supplies the fancy sinks in posh hotels doesn’t talk to whomever supplies the kettles as there’s a 50/50 chance of you being able to fit the kettle under the tap and, even if you can, you won’t be able to get it anywhere near full.

You open all the draws until the bible is found and removed.

 

[Participant]

The local escorts start giving you discounts.

Simple thing is to use the cup or glass beaker the room has to fill up from tap then transfer to kettle.

I stayed in a hotel where room had bottle opener on side of wardrobe, by desk. It was positioned too low for opening bottles. Was able to open a bottle by striking bottom of cap on edge of desk

Rig up lighting so unsure which switch belongs to which light. As none of them by bed control the ceiling ones
