A little story, but a close call.
I was visiting a touring lady I know well, she was visiting my city and we had arranged a meeting well in advance, a meeting I was, as ever, very much looking forward to.
As I got near the hotel I texted her and she texted me her hotel room number so I walked through the hotel foyer relaxed and confident, like any other hotel guest and attracting no interest.
Arriving at the room with the number she gave me I knocked, normally she would leave the door ajar but it wasn't unusual. I knocked and no reply. I knocked again and again no reply.
At this point I was becoming conscious of standing in the hallway and rang the lady. She asked where was, I said I was outside the door. She asked again where I was, again I said I was standing outside the door, all the time becoming more and more conscious that I was standing in the hallway of a hotel and getting nowhere. I knocked again, not sure why she wasn't letting me in but on the phone she was still asking where I was as she was looking through the spy hole in the door.
She had accidentally given me the number of the room beside hers which, luckily, was empty as otherwise I would have had a LOT of explaining to do to whoever opened the door.
Thankfully she opened her room door to find me knocking at the wrong door and we were able to quickly, and quietly, resolve the situation.
Part of me wonders whether she being on a corridor beside empty rooms was a coincidence or whether the staff had some idea what she was working at and put her in a room at a quiet end of the hotel to keep both her and other residents happy?
(as a general question, even though we all try to enter and leave hotels as discretely as possible (both escorts and clients) what are the chances that the hotel staff know exactly what is going on and are just happy to have the booking as long as none of the other guests complain?
