We’re All A Bunch Hotel Room Thieves
This morning we were talking about people that stay in a hotel room and leave with more than they came with.
According to TripAdvisor, 22% of people ADMIT to stealing. How many don’t admit? It’s also estimated that hotel room theft costs the North American hotel industry over 100 million dollars annually.
Now to be fair, I’ve been guilty of snatching up the soap after I’ve used it. But that’s used soap, the hotel would have just thrown it out anyway right? I’m saving the environment!
But some people go much further as Carmen from the Days Inn Timmins told us this morning. She says that guests taking towels and even batteries from the remote and smoke alarm are a regular occurrence! I can’t believe someone would ever take the battery out of a smoke alarm. Stupid, stupid, stupid. Are you really that hard up for a 9V? I mean honestly, what do you own that even takes a 9V? Besides your own smoke alarm…
