>>91855When we were in Italy someone tried doing a similar scam.
The hotel staff knew we would be out all day. When we came back, they told us that someone else already had a reservation for our room, and they moved all our stuff to a more expensive room.
Mom didn't have any part of this, and she went up to the room to get our stuff, even though it was already in the evening. She was quiet angry. Dad left to go find another hotel.
The hotel realized we weren't fucking around and gave us the better room at the rate we originally were being charged.
