People who work in hotels see all kinds of people.

As people from all over the world go in and out of their revolving doors on an almost daily basis.

Though it might be the housekeeping staff who see more than anyone else, and frankly more than they would care to see themselves.

Unlike most of the staff, they have the unique position of going into the guest's rooms.

Of course, they tend to knock to make sure no one's there before entering.

But every now and again, the guests don't hear the knock or put on the "please makeup room" sign on their door instead of "do not disturb."

Leaving the poor cleaning staff with a memories they would likely do anything to forget.


Redditor KingSlayer1287 was eager to hear the most shocking and scandalous things hotel staff members have ever witnessed while at work, leading them to ask:
"Hotel staff of Reddit, what’s the most NSFW moment you witnessed at your hotel?"

Thrills On Ice

"I worked at a hotel in a resort town in Europe."

"One of the maids called me to a room for help because it has been the location of an extremely messy sex party from the touring ice show."

"There were used condoms thrown everywhere, and half the furniture was busted."

"The poor maid was in tears, thinking she'd have to clean it."

"The hotel management called in a professional cleaning company who wore disposable suits, respirators, and eye protection."

"They got rid of most of the stuff in the room and charged a fortune to the ice show."- Abba_Fiskbullar

Get A Room! Oh, Yeah...

"I work overnights in a relatively small hotel, and at least 6/7 days a week, I hear people banging loud as hell in their rooms."

"Half the rooms have a balcony that overlooks the lobby, and those doors aren't soundproof at all."

"We had a man sleepwalk out of his room to the lobby, bucka** nude."

"We had a woman show up in the lobby in her underwear."-

Now That Takes Effort

"Night Auditor here, I've seen a LOT."

"Multiple times I've had guests come to my desk completely naked because somehow they locked themselves out.... naked... this one always confuses me."

"But probably the most NSFW was a guest who had gotten violently ill."

"We're talking projectile vomit on EVERY surface of the room, blood all over, feces, pee... everything was just destroyed..."

"Obvious call to paramedics, but I can never unsee it."- thefuzzmuffin

Amazing He Wasn't Hurt...

"I was a night shift security guard for a motel right next to the biggest casino in my state."

"It was common for addicts to hang out around the property."

"One time, this guy staying in a room did a lil too much and had a freak out."

"He was running around the walkways naked."

"I had to ward him away from peoples rooms so they wouldn’t be disturbed."

"He ended up jumping off the second story balcony and splatting on the pavement."

"He scampered up and hauled a** across the street into a car dealership."

"Not my problem anymore."- Carniverousphinctr

Will Someone Think Of The Children?!?!

"Sex party in the hot tub while children were playing in the indoor pool steps away."

"I had to break that up and throw them out."

"And deal with the numerous lengthy yet justified complaints about it."- mbgal1977

When Wigs And Disguises Won't Cut It...

"Many years ago worked at a very nice casino resort as a valet."

"Regular pulled up in his nice BMW and went to help."

"Wrote up his ticket got his keys and offered to help load up his luggage on a bell cart while we waited for a bellman."

"Opened the trunk and went to lift the suitcase and I about threw my back out."

"I wasn’t prepared for it to be so heavy."

"Gave it another go and heaved it onto the bell cart and heard a sound."

“'Mr, did your suitcase just make an oof sound…?'”

"Long story short a sex worker who was banned from the property was stowed away in there to get up to his room."- thatryanguy1

Why Stop When The Getting Is Good?

"When I was young and worked at a hotel, I was delivering a room service meal and when I got there, the door was closed but had been left just shy of being latched."

'I knocked and the guest yelled 'come in'."

"I pushed it open with the cart, walked in and he was standing there with a big grin on his face watching my reaction as I wheeled in the cart, butt naked with a woman, also naked."

"He smiled and reached out and handed me a $20 he had in his hand and said to just leave it there and close the door on the way out."

"I guess part of their kink was to show off and see my reaction."

"I was shocked, but never said anything to anyone at work."- TXjoedog

NSFW? More Like Safety Hazard!

"The most NSFW thing that I recall was the manager getting on a cleaning kick and accidentally mixing the wrong chemicals in the pool area."

"A toxic gas started to form and the whole hotel had to be evacuated at like 5 AM."- DtotheJtotheH

What Haven't They Seen?

"I did security for a hotel for a number of years."

"I've seen naked guests locked out of their rooms, wedding parties break into the pool area and jump in fully clothed."

"Had a drunk woman climb out her 3rd-floor window and chill on the roof just below."- silverwarbler

Storefront?

"Best friend was GM I was manager."

"He found over the years 4 guns, 5 lbs of weed (at once)."

"The amount of guns is what surprises me."

"Only one out of the four guns found over the years was reported stolen."- Drewpacabra

So Many Questions...

"I wasn't working at this hotel and was just a guest, but I wish I had asked the staff for the backstory."

"I'm checking into my hotel in Los Angeles and was given my keycard."

"Head to the room, open the door, and there's a naked buff dude standing next to the bed just staring at me."

"He says nothing."

"I apologize and quickly leave, assuming somehow I'd gotten the wrong room."

"I go back to the front desk and say, 'I'm sorry, but I think you gave me the wrong room. There's a naked man already in there'."

"The worker at the front desk says, 'Sh*t, not again'."

"He pulls out his walkie talkie and says, 'Security? He's back again'."

"They assigned me to a different room and I was on my way."- telarium

What hotel guests do within the privacy of their own room is their business and no one else's.

Even so, it couldn't hurt for them to remember to lock their doors.

In an overuse of free will and dark humor, 26-year-old Leon Gillespie was arrested and charged a £200 fine for appearing as the Grim Reaper on the roof of the Ysbyty Glan Clwyd hospital in St. Asaph, Denbighshire.

Though Gillespie attempted to plead that he had appeared as a black "crow" on the roof of the hospital, the judge at Llandudno Magistrates in North Wales wasn't convinced, as the costume included a hood and a long blade, looking like the standard Grim Reaper with its scythe.
