"My Kid Threw Up, Refund Me!"
Look, in 99% of similar cases, the hotel absolutely would have just cleaned up after the kid and not said another word about it. If the hotel was lucky enough to be staffed well at night, they could have even handled the sheets and re-making the bed right then and there. But, unfortunately, not...

Mommy to the Rescue
This was such a fun skit to make! I usually don't use style filters when I'm filming, but I just HAD to use the bald filter for this guy. 😂 What did you think of it? Should I use that bald filter more often??? What do you think of this guest and this story? Let me know! 🤗 If you would like to...

This story from r/TalesFromTheFrontDesk was WILD! I actually omitted a lot of the foul language used by the guest, including some VERY harmful words. Yikes, just... Yikes. 😬 All because she didn't have the patience to work with the front desk to figure the issue out. She could have easily put…

This Group Made a Huge Mistake
Gotta love when the Front Office can't get ahold of anyone who knows what's going on with a group contract. 🤦♀️ I can't tell you how many times we had this kind of issue at the convention hotels I worked at. Eventually it became a rule that the hotel employee(s) who were in charge of the group...

Why Hotels Aren't "Price Gouging" (In This Situation)
So you know that skit I posted earlier this week? A lot of people were commenting that the hotel raising their prices for events or holidays was "price gouging". And I can't help but go, "Um, actually ☝🤓" It feels unfair, it feels scummy, and it sucks, I agree. But it's not technically price...

Lying About an Employee...
Too many businesses trust guests at their word. 🤦♀️ Sometimes guests say, "Well I was told by YOUR employee that I could get this..." and the managers just roll over. Then the employee gets in trouble for something they never said! That's why communication, documentation, and recordings are SO...

Hotel Skit Compilation 29
What do you guys think of the longer compilations?! I used to try and keep them between 8-9 minutes, but now that I'm making longer and longer skits, it's getting more difficult to include a lot of them in compilations and still keep them that same length. Tell me what you think! If you have a...

Please Don't Use Debit Cards at Hotels
I'm back with another explanation video! This is one of those things that's tricky to explain, but also EXTREMELY important. The difference between using a debit and a credit card at hotels may not seem like much, but once you get down to the details, it can turn into a huge issue. If you have a...
