Even though it's very common to see hotel guests doing things that staff can't stand, it's also very much usual to catch employees doing exactly the same (or even worse). Well, we are all humans—of course, we are— but we can also avoid some behaviors if we think first.

There are very uncomfortable situations that hotel guests have to witness, especially when they see staff entering guests' rooms when they're not supposed to or even stealing food from the buffet.

There's a whole range of situations that hotel employees insist on doing, only stopping when they get caught by their managers or even by the guests themselves—even though guests have been kicked out of hotels a lot of times for doing annoying things.

Check out all the inappropriate things hotel staff has been caught doing.

15 Entering A Guest's Room When They're Not Supposed To

Hotel employees get caught entering guests' rooms just because they feel the need to. Unfortunately, this is a very common situation nowadays, and some guests even state that some of their items suddenly disappear...

Coincidence? We don't think so.

14 Using The Same Cleaning Rag To Clean Both The Toilets And Everywhere Else In The Room

Unfortunately, this is one of the secrets hotel staff don't want you to know. But the truth is that they often use the same cleaning rag to clean the bathroom and also everywhere else in the room.

Well, where's the actual cleaning part, people? Just imagine the number of times you've stayed at a hotel...

13 Stealing Valuable Items From Guests' Rooms

As we told you at the beginning of this article, a lot of guests state that, once they get to their rooms, they notice some missing items—which usually are extremely valuable. Some people lose their laptops, their phones, and even wallets.

This is a very unfortunate situation that happens far too often.

12 Cleaning Mugs (And Other Crockery) With The Bedsheets

Again, the cleaning part...

As hotel staff changes the bedsheets for new guests to enter, they often clean the (used or unused) crockery with what they have at hand. Needless to say that the likelihood of them cleaning everything else with the bedsheets his very high...

11 Stealing Food From The Buffet

Hotel buffets (which have been highly altered during this pandemic) are to die for, aren't they?

Hotel staff shares the same opinion and that's why they often bring (a lot of) food for the road, hoping that no one is checking on them. Fortunately or not, half of those times are always caught by guests.

10 Getting Involved With (Married) Guests

Hotel staff is famous for getting (very) friendly with guests, especially the ones who are married. We know this happens because both sides want to get involved, but it's very inappropriate for staff to get caught by their managers or other guests in such a situation.

Even though this is extremely funny to imagine, it must be the worst thing ever for guests to arrive in their room and find somebody else in there...

This is just another one of those secrets that hotel employees try to keep from guests, given the number of times they sneak in other people's rooms.

8 Partying With Guests (During Work Hours)

If there's a little booze around, then the party is about to start!

It's quite common to see guests partying here and there, especially at all-inclusive resorts, and that's precisely when hotel employees join the party and end up being caught (and even fired) by their managers afterward.

7 Include Gifts In Known Guests' Room (By Accessing Hotel's Private Files)

If you have a friend who's working at the hotel you're staying in the next days, you'll probably let him/her know when you're arriving—and also how nice it would be to have some extra gifts waiting inside.

That's when hotel staff accesses private files stating that the upcoming guest is a very "important" one.

6 Bring Fresh Towels Home

As often as you, as a guest, bring towels and hotel amenities home, the same happens with hotel employees, but this time it's even more common. They usually get caught stealing fresh towels, but the truth is that they end up bringing them back when no one is watching.

5 Drinking All The Booze In The Minibar (And Filling Some With Water Afterwards)

Here's a tip for you: check the minibar in the next hotel room you enter, because it's highly probable that you'll find some loose bottle caps (especially in alcoholic drinks). Check those twice since it's frequent for hotel employees to drink them and fill them with water afterward.

4 Puking On Ice Buckets Meant To Keep Guests' Alcoholic Drinks Cool

After partying so hard with guests, hotel employees have to throw up somewhere, don't you think?

That is why you need to think twice before ordering alcoholic drinks that need ice buckets to cool them off because someone might have puked in there very recently.

3 Giving Guests Room Upgrades When They're Not Supposed To

That's how easy it is to request a room upgrade with no apparent reason...

Hotel guests often ask staff to upgrade to a better room and they often give in... The worst part is when managers catch the employees doing what they're not supposed to, and when they're not supposed to.

2 Claiming Lost And Found Items

Some say that there's a rule in every hotel that allows the employees to claim lost and found items after a long period without the actual owner reclaiming them. That's precisely when staff brings one (or all) of the objects along and never admit to doing such a robbery.

1 Refusing To Prepare Kids' Meals (When They're Required To)

Did you know that, when at hotels, children are allowed to ask for special menus, especially if they dislike the regular ones?

Well, that makes hotel employees required to grant the request, even though they often get caught denying it, which couldn't be ruder coming from them...
