We called the front desk and they said they accidentally face the wrong key put, and then had the audacity to say we should’ve had the chain on the door! But we were college kids so didn’t do anything… if it happened now I would’ve demanded some sort of Credit.
This same basic thing happened to a couple girlfriends of mine while studying abroad in Italy in college, except that it didn’t involve anything sexual. They were each just sleeping naked in their own beds on opposite sides of the room around midnight when the door loudly opened and it turned out to be an older couple who were supposed to be in the room next door but were given the wrong key at the front desk. It’s actually terrifying to think what could have happened had it been some predator who got the wrong key and walked in on two vulnerable 20-year-old women.
I was on the other end of this once - I was given a key card and room number, but when I walked in, I saw clothes strewn about the room and heard the shower running. Luckily I did not see the occupant! I have no idea if he knew he'd been walked in on. I backed out of the room, ran downstairs and requested a new room. They apologized profusely and gave me a major upgrade ... I was like, that's cool, but the guy in that room up there is the one you really need to apologize to, whether he knows it or not!
Now I always use the chain/bolt when I'm in a hotel room. And when I'm entering a new hotel room for the first time, I crack the door open and pause for just a second before opening it all the way.
