This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

›manager comes and says i need to pay to let her come up

I have worked in several hotels. None of them charged for visitors. I’m calling bullshit on this one.

If this were in Central or South America, or Asia it's believable. I remember checking in one time and there was a sign on the wall saying something like "female guests will incur an extra charge".

Ooh! Good contribution. Thanks for the info!

That happens because we are still pretty conservative in Asia and large parts still don't have as open a culture of relationships as the west. Young couples generally book these rooms (or love hotels, as they are called in Japan) to have sex. Obviously that's looked down on. This is a great way to make money on the societal restriction lol.

Why not just... use a side entrance?

I've used the front and back entrance, but where is the side entrance?

It looks like the back door, but it's actually more like the front door once you get in. I prefer it because it's a little different than the front without the risk of the back door (sometimes they really don't like it).
