In addition nurses are available in the evenings to put down your children.
Guests are invited to mate in the bar and expose themselves to others.
To become friends with other guests it is good to have intercourse with others.
But please note that ladies are not allowed to have their babies in the bar, who with our help can be delivered in the baby centre.

Your Room:
Every room has excellent facilities for your private parts.

3 – Hotel Inquiry (it is a dog life)
A man wrote a letter to a small hotel in a Midwest town he planned to visit on his vacation. He wrote this short letter:
“I would very much like to bring my dog with me. He is well-groomed and very well behaved. Would you be willing to permit me to keep him in my room with me at night?”
An immediate reply came back from the hotel owner, who wrote:
“Dear Sir …I’ve been operating this hotel for many years now, and in all that time, I’ve never had a dog steal towels, bedclothes, silverware or pictures off the walls. I’ve never had to evict a dog in the middle of the night for being drunk and disorderly, and I’ve never had a dog run out on a hotel bill.
Yes indeed, your dog is very welcome at my hotel and if your dog will vouch for you, you’re welcome to stay here, too.”

Thinking this must be a freak occurrence, she lies down once more. Again a train shakes the room so violently, She’s pitched to the floor.
Exasperated, she calls the front desk, asks for the manager. The manager says he’ll be right up. The manager (naturally) is skeptical but the wife insists the story is true.
“Look,…lie here on the bed – you ‘ll be thrown right to the floor!”

“You‘ve got to have a room somewhere,” he pleaded. ‘or even just a bed – I don’t care where.”
“Well, I do have a double room with one occupant,” admitted the manager, “and he might be glad to split the cost. But to tell you the truth, he snores so loudly that people in adjoining rooms have complained in the past. I’m not sure it’d be worth it to you.”
“No problem,” the tired travelers assured him. “I’ll take it.”
The next morning Willard came down to breakfast bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.
“How’d you sleep?” asked the manager.
“Never better.”
The manger was impressed. “No problem with the other guy snoring, then?”
“Nope, I shut him up in no time” said Willard.
“How’d you manage that?” asked the manager.
“He was already in bed, snoring away, when I came in the room,” Willard explained.
“I went over, gave him a kiss on the check, said ‘Good night, beautiful,’ and he sat up all night watching me.”

“We have 5 floors. Go up floor by floor, and once you find what you are looking for, you can stay there. It’s easy to decide since each floor has a sign telling you what’s inside.”
So they start going up and on the first floor the sign reads: “All the men here have it short and thin.” The friends laugh and without hesitation move to the next floor.
The sign on the second floor reads: “All the men here have it long and thin.” Still, this isn’t good enough so the friends continue on up.
They reach the third floor and the sign reads: “All the men here have it short and thick.” They still want to do better, and so, knowing there are more…

Cheap Hotels
They advertised running water in each room, but I didn’t expect it to come from the ceiling.
They only served three meals. Breakfast on Monday, Lunch on Tuesday and Dinner on Saturday.

I couldn’t complain about the room service. There wasn’t any,
They changes beds twice a day – from one room to the next.
I had running water in my room. Shame it never stopped.
Everything was cold except the ice water.
The hotel has started stealing towels from the guests.
It was so big by the time you crossed the lobby you owed for a day.
When I asked for hot towels, they told me to put the cold ones on the radiator.
If you asked for a 7.00am wake up call, they wake you up at 6.00 just to tell you have an hour left to sleep.
The hotel was advertised as ‘Bed and board” – I couldn’t tell which was which.

9 – The Make of a Hotel Manager
If you can speak Italian like a native,
And put a Russian stranger at his ease,
If you can charm and be appreciative,
In Spanish, French and German-Portuguese,
If you can always do and say what’s proper
And mix with Court and Church and stage and Law,
If you can mix with Silver, Gold and Copper;
And get on well with rich and well with poor.
If you can be a king of variation,
And feel the public pulse and make it throb.
If you can love the wondrous animation,
And all the teaming problems of your job.
If you can fight tremendous opposition,
If you can get the penny and the bun.
And view a hundred different propositions,
And visualize the prospect in each one.
If you can make a convert of a miser,
Though it may bring your powers to the test.
If you can make him feel so much the wiser,
In persuading him to eat and drink the best,
If you can meet a man who’s lost his temper,
Who slates you left and right for all you’ve done.
If you can tell yourself he’s got distemper,
And then convince him that he’s had good fun.
If you can read a face and what’s inside it,
And know all men and women at a glance,
Or guess a trickster’s trick before he’s tried it,
If you can tell just when to take a chance.
If you can face a Board that’s thrifty minded
And tell it how you want some money spent,
If you can open eyes that have been blinded,
And then with purest logic gain consent.
If you can win your staff yet be respected,
And make them part and parcel of your plan,
If you can know they’ll do just what’s expected,
And feel they’re behind you to a man.
If you can live a day with heavy onus,
And remember even then, when day is done,
That someone on your staff deserves a bonus.
You’ll make a hotel manager, my son.

10 – What is a hotelier?
A hotelier must be a diplomat, a democrat, an autocrat, an acrobat, and a doormat. He must have the facility to entertain prime minister, princess of industry, pickpockets, gamblers, bookmakers, pirates, philanthropists, and prudes. He must be on both sides of the political fence and be able to jump that fence.
He should be, or have been, a footballer, golfer, bowler, tennis player, cricketer, dart player, sailor, pigeon fancier, motor racer, or linguist, as well as have a good knowledge of any other sport involving dice, cards, horses, and pool cues. As he sometimes has to settle arguments and squabbles, he must be a qualified boxer, wrestler, weight-lifter, sprinter, and peacemaker,
He must always look immaculate when drinking with ladies and gentlemen – as well as with bankers, swankers, theatricals, commercial travelers and company representatives, even though he may have just made peace between any two, four, six or more of the aforementioned patrons.
To be successful he must keep the bar full, the house full, the storeroom full, the wine-cellar full, the customers full, and not get full himself. He must have staff who are clean, honest, quick workers, quick thinkers, non-drinkers, mathematicians, technicians, and at all times on the boss’s side, the customers’ side, the outside of the bar.
To sum up — he must be outside, inside, offside, glorified, sanctified, crucified, cross-eyed, and, if he’s not the strong silent type, there’s always suicide!

11 – A Classic Case (Hotel Soaps)
(An old one ….)
Dear Maid,
Please do not leave any more of those little bars of soap in my bathroom since I have brought my own bath-sized Dial. Please remove the six unopened little bars from the shelf under the medicine chest and another three in the shower soap dish. They are in my way.
Thank you,
S. Berman
Dear Room 635,
I am not your regular maid. She will be back tomorrow, Thursday, from her day off. I took the 3 hotel soaps out of the shower soap dish as you requested. The 6 bars on your shelf I took out of your way and put on top of your Kleenex dispenser in case you should change your mind. This leaves only the 3 bars I left today which my instructions from the management is to leave 3 soaps daily. I hope this is satisfactory.
Kathy, Relief Maid.
Dear Maid – I hope you are my regular maid.
Apparently Kathy did not tell you about my note to her concerning the little bars of soap. When I got back to my room this evening I found you had added 3 little Camays to the shelf under my medicine cabinet. I am going to be here in the hotel for two weeks and have brought my own bath-size Dial so I won’t need those 6 little Camays which are on the shelf. They are in my way when shaving, brushing teeth, etc.
Please remove them.

Dear Mr. Berman,
My day off was last Wed so the relief maid left 3 hotel soaps which we are instructed by the management. I took the 6 soaps which were in your way on the shelf and put them in the soap dish where your Dial was. I put the Dial in the medicine cabinet for your convenience. I didn’t remove the 3 complimentary soaps which are always placed inside the medicine cabinet for all new check-ins and which you did not object to when you checked in last Monday. Please let me know if I can of further assistance.
Your regular maid,
Dotty
Dear Mr. Berman,
The assistant manager, Mr. Kensedder, informed me this A.M. that you called him last evening and said you were unhappy with your maid service. I have assigned a new girl to your room. I hope you will accept my apologies for any past inconvenience. If you have future complaints please contact me so I can give it my personal attention. Call extension 1108 between 8AM and 5PM. Thank you.
Elaine Carmen
Housekeeper
Dear Miss Carmen,
It is impossible to contact you by phone since I leave the hotel for business at 745 Am and don’t get back before 530 or 6PM. That’s the reason I called Mr. Kensedder last night. You were already off duty. I only asked Mr. Kensedder if he could do anything about those little bars of soap. The new maid you assigned me must have thought I was a new check-in today, since she left another 3 bars of hotel soap in my medicine cabinet along with her regular delivery of 3 bars on the bath-room shelf. In just 5 days here I have accumulated 24 little bars of soap. Why are you doing this to me?
S. Berman
Dear Mr. Berman,
Your maid, Kathy, has been instructed to stop delivering soap to your room and remove the extra soaps. If I can be further assistance, please call extension 1108 between 8AM and 5PM. Thank you,
Elaine Carmen,
Housekeeper

Dear Mr. Kensedder,
My bath-size Dial is missing. Every bar of soap was taken from my room including my own bath-size Dial. I came in late last night and had to call the bellhop to bring me 4 little Cashmere Bouquets.
S. Berman
Dear Mr. Berman,
I have informed our housekeeper, Elaine Carmen, of your soap problem. I cannot understand why there was no soap in your room since our maids are instructed to leave 3 bars of soap each time they service a room. The situation will be rectified immediately. Please accept my apologies for the inconvenience.
Martin L. Kensedder
Assistant Manager
Dear Mrs. Carmen,
Who the hell left 54 little bars of Camay in my room? I came in last night and found 54 little bars of soap. I don’t want 54 little bars of Carmay. I want my one damn bar of bath-size dial. Do you realize I have 54 bars of soap in here. All I want is my bath sixze Dial. Please give me back my bath-size Dial.
S. Berman
Dear Mr. Berman,
You complained of too much soap in your room so I had them removed. Then you complained to Mr. Kensedder that all your soap was missing so I personally returned them. The 24 Carmays which had been taken and the 3 Camays you are supposed to receive daily (sic). I don’t know anything about the 4 Cashmere Bouquets. Obviously your maid, Kathy, did not know I had returned your soaps so she also brought 24 Camays plus the 3 daily Camays. I didn’t know where you got the idea this hotel issues bath-size Dial. I was able to locate some bath-size Ivory which I left in your room,
Elaine Carmen
Housekeeper

Dear Mrs. Carmen,
Just a short note to bring you up-to-date on my latest soap inventory. As of today I possess:
- On shelf under medicine cabinet – 18 Camey in 4 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of 2.
- On Kleenex dispenser – 11 Carmey in 2 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of 3.
- On bedroom dresser – 1 stack of 3 Cashmere Bouquet, 1 stack of 4 hotel-size Ivory, and 8 Camay in 2 stacks of 4.
- Inside medicine cabinet – 14 Camey in 3 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of 2.
- In shower soap dish – 6 Camay, very moist.
- On northeast corner of tub – 1 Cashmere Bouquet, slightly used.
- On northwest corner of tub – 6 Camays in 2 stacks of 3.
Please ask Kathy when she services my room to make sure the stacks are neatly piled and dusted. Also, please advise her that stacks of more than 4 have a tendency to top. May I suggest that my bedroom window still is not use and will make an excellent spot for future soap deliveries. One more item, I have purchased another bar of Bath-sized Dial which I am keeping in the hotel vault in order to avoid further misunderstandings.
