[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I wouldn’t expect people to move. But, I would expect that if you choose to sit in the room with the piano meant for guests to play (as there are literally dozens of other options)  you shouldn’t be put out when people play it. I guess if I sat in the bagpipe area (at the highland game?) Id have to deal with people bringing their pipes. Otherwise I’m not sure the analogy holds. Again, it’s a lovely type of leasure equipment provided by the resort for use of guests. I guess I’m not seeing the real difference between this and my treadmill example.

But, I did come here for different opinions![/quote]

Nobody decorates a room with a treadmill. Plenty of people decorate a room with a piano, especially a nice one. It creates a certain look and feel. Bonus points that it's probably used for functions and they don't need to move it in and out of the room where they want it.[/quote]

This.  No one sat in the room because there was a piano.  They sat in the room because it was a room and the fact that there was a piano there was incidental.  I probably would have moved or left the room.

I love music but if I was there for quiet conversation then I would have found the random music to be bothersome.  It is different if I'm at some mall walking around and there is someone seated at a piano playing it.  Then I have a choice to just not go to that area.  But if I'm already seated and then some random person walks in and plays some random music then that would be a bother and I would leave.[/quote]
