Unsolved Guest Mysteries‌‌

[Laura2592]

This is just for fun, but we are puzzled by some of the mysterious behaviors of guests. Share your thoughts and your own unsolved guest mysteries for others to solve!

The Case of the Married Couple Who Sleeps in Two Beds. Ricky and Lucy? They had a fight? Just want to wake up to a different view every day? Terrible snoring? We have identical mattresses in both bedrooms and state that to guests. But fairly often on a 2 night stay we will have both beds slept in. 

The Case of the Overflowing Coffee Filter. Our cleaners have a great need for this case to be cracked. We periodically have guests who leave the grinds in the drip coffee maker and the filter is full to overflowing. Do they think their coffee is stronger if they overfill the filter? Just not know how much to put in?

The Case of the Missing Cutting Board. We had a set of 3 bamboo cutting boards in various sizes and over the course of the year they all disappeared. One at a time. Who is out there collecting used cutting boards? It seems like this would be hard to pack by accident. Is there a cutting board conspiracy?

What guest mysteries would you like solved?

@Laura2592 I’ve also had married couple stay and the wife return by herself. So your solo woman guest with wedding ring may have been just traveling by herself. Also had partner solo to quarantine away from her partners teenage kids so she could visit her at risk parents over holidays. Although I could see how guest don’t want to get into that much detail. Definitely can keep you guessing.

My three strangest guests over the years are the ones that simply 'disappeared'. They booked (direct), they paid via PayPal ($2k+ mind you), never answered any messages after that and never showed up. To this date, I have no clue what all that was about.

Come to think about it, if all of my guests pulled that stunt I would be thrilled. 😉
