When it comes to weird behavior, people who work in the service sector have probably seen it all. Especially hotel workers, as people often like to let loose when they're not living at home.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that around 1.7 million people work in the traveler accommodations industry. That's probably 1.7 million people who can each tell their fair share of ridiculous stories they came across their tenure.

Once, there was a chinese couple from mainland china renting a suite room, our biggest room. Sure, it was easily the most expensive room that was in our hotel. Our suite is big, and was having a discount for promo for about $200 a night. It has 2 bedrooms, and one common room with sofa. They didn’t order extra bed, so there was only 2 king sized bed there.
What was strange, is that our employee noticed different people came into that same room that night. We thought that they was having a meeting or something, and kinda let it go.
But the next morning, someone caught a glimpse inside the room, and filed a report. So we check the room, and there was easily around 20 plus people, packed inside that big suite room, sleeping on the floor, at the sofa, and some in sleeping bags or mattresses. About 5 families I think, judging from the male, along with their kids. Can you imagine people bringing their own sleeping bags inside a hotel? About 6 to 7 people inside the bedroom with 4 on the floor, 2 on each big sofa, another one sleeping by pulling 2 smaller couches together, and the rest were on the floor at common room, sleeping like sardines.

A lady who twice got employees fired. She stayed with her husband and two kids then the husband left and she continued staying at the resort for a few more weeks. She flirted with an employee, a bellman, invited him back to her room after hours and they had sex while the kids took a nap. The next day she called Security to report the incident that she is a married lady and one of our employees went to her room. The employee was fired. The next year she came back. Prior to her return we put out a memo to all employees that they are not allowed in guest rooms except for work business. Again she flirts with an employee, invites him to her room, the next day she calls and reports it to security. He gets fired.

A drunk a**hole at a hotel in Portland, Maine. He literally cut me off from entering the lobby door because he wasn’t aware I was in the room. I can’t imagine how he treated the staff.
He did the same thing once we got through the door and cut me off AGAIN in the elevator! Needless to say, my husband declined the elevator and let him take it alone. (Probably best for the drunk, as I wasn’t in a mood to bail my husband out of jail over something as asinine as drunken disrespect.)

Had a company have a Christmas party and the owner of that company invited some employees back to his room for drinks, his wife went to bed and then he left the room with his wife sleeping and two male employees still in the room drinking. The owner of the company went down to another lady’s room and then one of the two men r***d his wife. The wife wanted to press charges, the husband did not. The police believed it was a wife swap where he did not inform his wife.

I worked the front desk and did lot security at a motel. One night I was noting a car that was not registered to a guest.
The owner of the car came out and started swearing at me. He was using language that would give Andrew Dice Clay hives. I kept trying to explain that he needed to register the car at the desk.

Hahaha. That would be my own. I was in college, I think my senior year and we had a trip to Atlanta to see the High Museum. There were 27 girls and 3 of us guys so they put us 3 guys in 1 room and the girls were 3–4 up in the other rooms to save money. That was a HUGE mistake. First of all, none of us guys wanted to “sleep together” so we took it upon ourselves to rearrange the room. We moved the two queen beds and put them end to end against one wall creating a HUGE 13-foot long bed that was about 5.5 feet deep. We were all of the legal drinking age back then since the age was 18. We made a quick trip to the liquor store, borrowed all the ice bins from the other room and opened the hotel room for the party. There were about a dozen girls that joined us and we were drinking and carrying on and having fun the entire weekend. We would not let housekeeping in the room. When we were done, the room was trashed. We left the room like it was too thinking it was a pretty cool way to turn a downside into a HUGE upside and we had fun doing it. The only problem was that we didn’t give a lot of thought as to how the hell the poor hotel maids would reset the room given that there is no way the 5′-2″ 98 pound maid could ever have moved those beds since it took three of us guys to move them. It was a real d**k move and I still feel bad for them. It did however answer the critical question of how many people can you sleep in one hotel room with two queen sized beds… the answer is 8 you just have to move them end to end.

I caught two teenage kids banging each other in a fire escape when I was pulling a weekend MOD shift one time in the ‘90s. They were about 15–16 years old and were doing it standing up, sort of like Sonny Corleone in one of the opening scenes of The Godfather. They were part of a religious youth group staying in our hotel at the time and were so engrossed in their activity, they didn’t hear me coming (no pun intended). I stood and stared for a second thinking they would have heard me and stop, but they kept after it. So, I cleared my throat and scarred the hell out of both of them. As they tried to regain their composure and straighten their clothes, I told them I knew they were with the church group and if they didn’t want me to call their chaperone, to stay the hell out of the fire escapes.
Lucky for them, we didn’t have cell phones with video cameras back then and there was no Porn Hub.

For me, It was a wild and weird thing. That time, I was working as a intern at the hotel. It was just 2 more hours before I got off from work. Then, my manager told me that a guest who is my friend requests for me to be in her room. That’s why I find it weird. Because I never told anyone that I’m working as an intern at that hotel. Only my girlfriend knows. When I went to her room, the room was filled with 4 girls wearing bra and panties. That was when I saw my girlfriend who is 1 of them. She then told me the early birthday surprise. She arranged for her classmate who had a crush on me for this surprise. She allowed me to have sex with them as long as my heart belongs to her and only her.
