(67,112 posts)a week and about 2 AM someone started banging on my door telling me to open the door immediately. I looked through the peep hole and there were two huge guys there all dressed in black. I was like WTF and scared. I called the desk, they told me I was in an unoccupied room and they had been sent to remove me from the hotel. I put my heavy corporate tone on the phone and told them the room was booked for two weeks.
Finally, a non-idiot came on the line and apologized. Somehow their books/computer was screwed up and showed the room was vacant. Apparently security does a scan of the building from outside at night and looks for lights on in rooms that are supposed to be vacant, but have lights on. Just another of my many WTF moments in life. BTW, this was in Canada.
I checked out in the morning and politely told them F you. They begged me to stay, as they had been having trouble renting rooms. I told them no wonder, get a clue and left.
A phone call to my room would have been nice before sending in guards all dressed in black in the middle of the night, FFS.
