The generic hotel experience, based on years of international road warrioring: 🧵
1/4 The check in agent must spend eight minutes mysteriously typing away at their computer and running back and forth to their colleague at the next counter while you stand there. Checking in online, indicating your arrival time, getting your digital room key on the app, being a regular guest, etc. does not change that at all.
When you first enter the room, the TV is always on, blasting obnoxious muzak on loop, and displaying “Welcome” followed by your last name in all caps. Your first order of business will be to frantically locate the hidden remote.
Your next order of business will be to collect and put away all the random cards, leaflets, welcome letters, spa information, and no smoking reminders that litter the bed, bedside tables, desk, and minibar countertop, like in a deranged mini Easter egg hunt sans the yummy chocolate. 3 replies
