So me & DH go out this evening for dinner and a motorcycle ride. Stress free evening, or so we thought!. We get back about 10pm. As we drive in the yard, 2 guests are standing in the driveway. The guy says," uh, we got a bit of bad news for ya." I thought, ugh, they want to check out early for some reason ...he says, "we think there's a bat in our room".Oh, for crying out loud!
they had come back from dinner she came in and left the door open for him while he got something from the car. all we can assume is it came in then and somehow made it down the hallway and into their guestroom before they closed their room door.
This is a very young couple that has been here for a handful of days now and have a couple more to go. They are friendly but also seem to have a snooty way about them. Anyway, so DH heads inside and the couple come in and leave the door wide open behind them. Hmm, wonder how the bat might have gotten in... Dh heads into their guestroom(our 1st floor room) with a broom and the girl says she is going outside because she is scared, he says he'll goe with her cause he is scared too. The bat is flying around their room. Dh whacks it with the broom. (I know, i feel bad it had to end that way for him just because the guests were not bright enough to close the door behind them)
Takes me back a couple of weeks ago to when guests were checking in. I see them standing in the yard looking at something but i could not see anything. I opened the door and said hello. They said they were watching a raccoon. he was crouched behind our outdoor stairway on the back of the house (probably 10 feet from our back door). I said well maybe you should come in because if he is mad then he could possibly bite. So they came in a few minutes later, and what did they do?, that's right, left the door wide open! I am not going to be a happy innkeeper at all if i have to chase a raccoon at 10pm at night.
I can't stand it, how in the world do i get guests to realize they NEED to close the door behind them? I realize I'm not gonna win this one. it's just driving me nuts that 10 times a day i can walk into the dining room and the back sliding door is wide open!
