My wife and I were traveling by car from Victoria to Prince George . Being Seniors,
after almost eleven hours on the road, we were too tired to continue, and decided to
take a room. But, we only planned to sleep for four hours and then get back on the
road. When we checked out four hours later, the desk clerk handed us a bill for
$350.00.
I exploded and demanded to know why the charge was so high. I told the clerk
although it's a nice hotel; the rooms certainly weren't worth $350.00 for four
hours. Then the clerk told me that $350.00 was the 'standard rate'. I insisted on
speaking to the Manager.
The Manager appeared, listened to me, and then explained that the hotel has an
Olympic-sized pool and a huge conference centre that were available for us to use.
'But we didn't use them," I said, ''Well, they are here, and you could have,"
explained the Manager.
He went on to explain that we could also have taken in one of the shows for which
the hotel is famous. "We have the best entertainers from New York , Hollywood , and
Las Vegas perform here," the Manager said
"But we didn't go to any of those shows," I said. "Well, we have them, and you could
have," the Manager replied.
No matter what amenity the Manager mentioned, I replied, "But we didn't use it!"
The Manager was unmoved, and eventually I gave up and agreed to pay.
I wrote a check and gave it to the Manager.
The Manager was surprised when he looked at the check. " But sir, this check is
only made out for $50.00." ''That's correct. I charged you $300.00 for sleeping with
my wife," I replied.
"But I didn't!" exclaimed the Manager.
I said, "Well, too bad, she was here, and you could have."
