y: There's no such thing as normal.
All day yesterday and the evening before I was hurting myself smiling at the above comments cause once upon a time ago...
Does anyone really think that hotel staff don't know what's going on? They might miss a few but still. Remember their job is to rent rooms and have happy repeat clients.
Some posts above have alluded to hotel staff being bored, etc. While partially true, note that the lobby is a stage, and at times more entertaining, and more original, than what a scriptwriter can come up with.
Hotel trivia presented for humour. Note that these also include civilians dating civilians.
For JR: All I'm going to say is " pet deposits ". I recall a few diff situations where maids got several hundred dollar bonuses. Guests do get blacklisted. Thanks to BigMike for that memory.
For local guys that check into a local hotel: Thank you for giving the staff an excuse to place bets with each other on which of the gals that come through the lobby later are your date. Winner based on which gal comes back through the lobby on her way out xx minutes later.
By the way, the maids run their own set of bets, as do bar staff, for the theatrics that go on at their stages. And, it's quite common for staff to be in on bets from other areas of hotel.
Towels and maids: Never ask the front desk for towels, that causes a paper trail. As R Stone mentioned, ask a maid and tip her. You will then have xtra your entire stay and you just might get adopted and looked after. I disagree with sherm's conclusion of a discretion issue, cause of all staff in hotel, the maids are going to know regardless, and his tale shows that that the gal had been adopted by the maids and perhaps had a bit of extra security cause of that. Of course it's the tip money.
Gemma gets 2 full bonus points. One for correct check in procedure for gals and one for the elevator mention.
royamcr gets an assist on the elevator.
Doughnut eaters showed at a place and demanded the elevators all be brought down cause they wanted to find someone. So fire override was used. When fire override is used it takes a while to reset systems. So... the pastry boys had to go up the stairwell 12 floors to the 14th in full gear.
I have more, but seriously, it's a zoo, and civilian stuff is a heavy part if it. Think wedding reception with full open bar and there's people everywhere and a smoke bomb will not be noticed.
For guys, and op's original que: lacrew has first correct answer at post 2. Just don't walk into a potted plant.

The only difference is, one involves money, the other doesn't. Other than that, same damn thing. Most hotels aren't going to take the moralistic approach when they have over a 40% vacancy rate. The exception being places in JoCo where the police basically threaten the hotels with trouble if they DON'T rat them out. Otherwise, most don't care. I've been to several GangBangs in NICE hotels. I mean, one girl and 5 or 6 guys. Hard for the cameras to NOT see that. But no one does anything to get thrown out, it's business and usual. Hell, it's not uncommon for swingers groups to rent out hotels for their parties. I mean, in that instance, the KNOW what's going to go on....but if you're part of the "XYZ" group, have fun!
