Both of my parents have sensitive noses, so I actually get the “smelling a room” thing. You don’t want a room where the smell will make you sick. But smelling multiple rooms when you’ve already found a good one makes no sense.

My mom has severe allergies and asthma so Ive seen her go into a hotel room that seemed fine and then get severely affected by any smell of mold or dust in the ventilation for the room, so yeah smelling a room as the first step before unpacking had always been a thing for our family 😂. However she never asked to sniff the room first, we just had to ask for a different room sometimes. But continuing to want to sniff other rooms after the first one is fine is insane!

It wasn't smelling rooms but I had a friend I worked with who was part of a "restaurant group" we formed. But we noticed right away that it wasn't going to work for her. Every restaurant we would go to she ask to have "a tray of silverware" brought to our table and she would sit and go through until she found silverware with no water marks on them. I didn't work in a restaurant but I worked in the kitchen of a large hospital, workers do not have the time to dry utensils, nor do they have the time to re-wash utensils that she touched while routing for a non-water marked silverware. We politely informed her that she would have to bring her own silverware from now on or we wouldn't invite her to lunch or dinner. She brought her own.

Having worked in Customer Service I’ve learned two things. If you want the ultimate in receiving customer service do these things. 1. Use their name and be sincere when doing so. 2. Display common courtesy and give a little leeway with the representative as you don’t know what kind of day/week they’ve had. For all you know they could’ve just found out a family member has just died. Show some grace. Something I do is when I get excellent service is I’ll talk to the manager (without the representative present and ask if they can receive mail at work. If they can, I’ll send a hand written thank you you card with a gift card to buy lunch. Then, I’ll send another card to the manager praising the employee for their outstanding service. I’ll also write a review of my experience and praise the employee for their service.

A clean room is a room where you cannot smell anything, but hotels seem to think a clean room is 3 different scented products in the bathroom, 2 in the living area, window/mirror cleaner, an air freshener on the way out, and the supervisors overdone perfume who checked and released the room. Hint lemon scent to one person smells like a sweaty locker room to another.

2 is multiple. Sounded like hubby was mad too, probably isn't the first time she's tried that stunt. If she's that sensitive to smell, maybe she should take it up with a doctor... Yes, there may be medical reasons to have a veto on funny-smelling rooms. Fair enough, but it should be a case of "veto" not "choose". And anybody who promises ability to smell multiple rooms and fails to note it in the notes should be "retrained". --Actually, last time I was at a hotel, I put the AC unit to heat, it smelled a bit--just typical "heater hasn't run for a while" smell. Flipped to cool and it was fine, smell cleared up. Didn't matter to me for the stay, but I did mention to the front desk when I checked out that maybe someone should check the heater and clean it for operation before someone actually needed it.

Jessica, my son is a Door Dasher and he has his own Karens. Last night he had an order for some groceries. While getting his order, woman came up to him and asked him where the oakmeal was, he replied, row 4 and then he carried on. Karen barked at him to go get it. Son said she looked healthy, go get it herself. Karen blew up and stormed off to get the manager. She came back yelling at the manager to fire my son, he didn't do his job. The manager told the lady that he could not fire my son because he was doing his job, because he was a Dasher and did not work at that market. The manager and my son just looked at each other and smiled as Karen stomped off. My son may not work there but he knows the store very well, in fact my whole family knows it well, we shop there at least twice a week.

Ok random question that popped in my mind while seeing this video.. Idk if it'll even be seen but here goes.. So I assume there is a time during the year where hotel reservations are just slow.. Like sometimes a room would go unused for days maybe weeks at a time.. So assuming the worst case scenario, let's take the covid lockdown where for obvious reasons rooms weren't being used. So how are they maintained? Like are the rooms cleaned once or twice a week? Or is it that the room is once cleaned after it has been used and next time directly before another guest arrives? Because I assume apart from cleanliness, other things like AC, lights, etc need maintenance.. Yeah ik this was very badly framed but that's my question.
@NataliaAllenova9 ай бұрын
Hotels typically have rooms of the same type, so if some of rooms of the same type are unsold, we use this opportunity to perform sheduled maintenance or deep cleaning procedures (such as cleaning bathroom tiles with a pressure washer). The next day, the room that was not assigned to guests the day before will be 100% assigned to new arrivals. I.e. rooms are allocated on a rotating basis to guests, so there are no rooms left empty for days or weeks. We also reduce prices in the low season to sell as many rooms as possible. Please keep in mind that each hotel operates differently and other hotels may have different protocols. Regarding COVID, we were closed for only three months, every day we carried out routine maintenance and some cleaning procedures (such as opening windows to ventilate the premises, flushing toilets to avoid unpleasant odors) in all rooms, and basic cleaning was carried out on rotating basis (about once a week for each room). And before reopening we did general cleaning for all rooms and premises.

Neurodivergents everywhere are feeling all the feels for the woman who wanted to smell multiple rooms. For out brains, "okay... room #1 is like a pebble in my shoe. I can probably make that work. WOAH! Room #2 is like a boulder in my shoe!. It would be super helpful if I could smell one or two more, because maybe one of them is more a long the lines of a few grains of sand. If they would have told me that staffing would be an issues, I would have happily arrived at 2 PM when they had more staff on to make it easier. I'm sorry my brain works differently than how you think its supposed to, but 15-20% of the population is neurodivergent. Only 10% of the population is left handed, so we're not are rare as you think, we've just been told to keep quiet about it out whole lives.
