Barbara Lewis (guests name changed to protect the idiot!) - Famous Opera Star / Atlanta

Voice mail must be turned off! Remove bedspread, make bed w/ one cashmere blanket. Replace ice every 15 minutes. Room must be 72 degrees at all times. Messages hand delivered. Room must be free of dust. 100 watt lightbulbs. Place cold air humidifier in room, not on. Requires Playstation2 and 4 games. Early housekeeping service. No turndown.


Now I ask you... where am I gonna find a PS2 for this guest? I mean, the other requests I can deal with, but she ain't getting a PS2!

This must be the fat lady we hear so much about. Is she on her way down to Florida to sing to Gore?
 
Write a &quot;2&quot; on a playstation with a magic marker? Put in 2 playstations and tell her it was just a misunderstanding? That sounds like a rough job you've got ma, I'd get annoyed easily. 😀
 
Other than the Playstation2 w/4 game request, I'd say those are pretty reasonable requests for someone making their living with their voice 🙂 You are in the service industry, no? 😛
 
LOL!!! I'd rub my ass all over her pillow for that kind of a request.

Actually, I'd be more tempted to fart inside the pillowcase. 😉
 
My bet is that she does this at EVERY hotel she stays at. I seem to remember reading somewhere that famous people like to make lots of absurd requests of hotels just to see who comes through.

I also think that the PS2 is more likly a result of her not being a gamer, but hearing the hype about them. If my earlier theory is true, she'd ask for one just because she thought you'd have trouble getting one. I say rent one from Blockbuster, and charge her an absurd amount for it (like $300). I mean, hotels do that with room service, why should game service be any different? ($60 for a bottle of absolute, come on).
 
ahahah... LOL!

quite a few Atlantans here, right? (or in my case, East Cobbers [humm... that didn't sound right]) 😉
 
thanks for all the tips and advice. I spent the better part of the day taking care of this and other 'crap' requests.

Yes, this is the service business (and the idea of personalizing her pillow cases is truly above and beyond)🙂

I have until Tuesday for the PS2, so the rental route may work (albeit a few states away).
 
How much are the fees anyways? If this is a $100 a night room, then that's absurd... but if this is like $700 a night or more, then i can understand that.
 
I can't even imagine all the crap you must have to put up with.

I read or heard one time that Barbara Streisand's room contract calls for brand new never before used TOILET SEATS, on every single toilet. Some people need a reality check.
 
James Brolin stayed with us last year. Although Bab's stayed at home, we had to put a direct phone line in the suite so she could call hubby directly (and not have to talk to a hotel operator).

You're right.... some people:disgust:
