Someone came into my hotel room at 8am

This is also strange. If someone was in my room, I'd ask her who the devil she was before kicking her out and calling the front desk to complain.

What the f. So sick of hotels doing this.


You mean that's not the first time? Put the do not disturb placard on the door handle and use the chain lock. Problem solved.



How about- let guests sleep past 8am before barging into their room? Problem solved.


I have never had this happen.

Are you using the chain or similarly styled lock, in addition to the latch? Did you put the "do not disturb" sign on the handle?

Yes, but to be honest I didn't get the gist of what she was saying, she had a fairly thick accent. She was giggling a lot and I was just thinking "Get the F out of my room"

I get that it was 8am and you were sleepy, but did you ever verbalize that thought at all? Complain to the hotel? Anything that's more productive than complaining HERE?

Or you can just do your due diligence and take 2 seconds to slide the latch, which I would do regardless of when I was planning on waking up.


The door didn't have a latch, it had a bolt, which I locked. Thanks for your help in the thread, your input is no longer needed. Take care!


What kind of hotel doesn't have a slide latch? I use the do not disturb sign, I've never been bothered.

Hahaha I'm glad someone else finds it as crazy as I did. I don't think I would be so annoyed except for the giggling, that really put it over the top

Someone who apparently can't stop giggling and is not a maid comes into your room at 8am, and you don't ask have the sense to ask who she is or what she is doing there...way to go op. Next time use the "Do not disturb" sign.

Colleague of mine had her office laptop and other valuables stolen this way. They entered while she was sleeping, using a hacked keycard. That's why I always use the physical bolt (chain lock, etc) if they have one. I haven't been to a 4-star or higher hotel that didnt' have somethign like that. I think corporate security requires this in order for their employees to stay there.

All hotels I ever stayed have some sort of slide latch.

Perhaps she was offering "bedside services"?

I was also wearing my night guard, so I couldn't talk, which is why I just stared at her and finally waved to her to try to make her leave.

I kid you not, she stood there for a good ten seconds, alternately giggling and saying things in broken english that I 100% did not understand.

Finally she turned to leave and that's when I realized I should ask about the kleenex, as I am out, and I ripped out my night guard. That's when told me she didn't have any.

It was absolutely insane.
