The Hotel Stay
An older lady decided to give herself a big treat for her 70th birthday by staying overnight in a really nice hotel. When she checked out the next morning, the desk clerk handed her a bill for $250.00.
She demanded to know why the charge was so high."I agree it's a nice hotel, but the rooms aren't worth $250 for just an overnights stay. I Didn't even have breakfast."
The clerk told her that her $250 is the standard rate and breakfast had been included had she wanted it. She insisted on speaking to the manager.
The manager appeared, and forewarned by the clerk, announced: "This hotel has an Olympic sized pool and a huge conference center which are available for use."
"But I Didnt use them, she said."
"Well, they are here and you could have, " explained the manager. He went on to explain that she could have also seen one of the in-hotel shows for which they were so famous. "We have the best entertainers from all over the world performing here", the manager said.
"But I didn't go to any of those shows," she said.
"Well, we have them, and you could have," the manager replied. No matter what amenity the manager mentioned, she replied, "But I didn't use it!" And the manager countered with his standard response.
After several minutes discussion, and with the manager still unmoved, she decided to pay, wrote a check and gave it to him.
The manager was surprised when he looked at the check. "But madam, this check is for$50.00."
"That's correct. I charged you $200.00 for sleeping with me," she replied.
"But I didn't!" Exclaimed the very surprised manager.
"Well, too bad, I was here, and you could have."
