We had a couple staying here (booked through AirBNB). In the evening my wife and I heard a really loud crash from the room and it did not sound good. We looked at each other like what the heck was that?
We opted to not go to the room as they had been using the whirlpool, etc, and were likely not dressed for guests. When they left the next day I found that our sliding barn door, which is the door to the bathroom, had been knocked off the rail and had fallen to the floor causing some damage to the door. The raised wood panels were dented and the oil rubbed bronze finish on the hanger brackets were all scratched up. The glass on a small table had been chipped. Thankfully, the tub and tile had not been damaged.
This was, by the way, a brand new door and this was the first guests staying in the room since the door had been installed. The room itself is new. We've only had 3 couples stay in it prior to this couple. By the way, its a high-end home and a very plush, expensive looking room. Not a place people should feel like they can get drunk and party and do whatever they want.
The couple would have had to have fallen against the door (guessing they were drunk) really hard to be able to knock it off the track like that. I'm going to add some brackets to make it impossible to come off the track without unscrewing and removing the brackets.
But my question is, if you hear a really bad sounding noise do you go knock on the door and ask what it was?
