Dishonest Guests Problem in Hotels
PRENCH ies Ind UPL Hotels lose hundreds of thousands yearly as Americans become forgetful at checkout. The American Hotel Association lacks a total loss figure though executives say it runs into a few million for replacements. Items range from Gideon Bibles to dull desk pens. Housekeeper Mrs Havel McIntosh of Sheraton Coup's in French Lick notes men leave electric shaver cords while women misplace cosmetics and medicine chests. Slippers, toothbrushes, and medicines vanish. false teeth were stored for three years with no owner reclamation. Hotels plan security measures like stamping on glassware and anchoring TVs to deter theft. Sterling silver dining ware is a favorite target. one New York hotel switched to plastic demitasse spoons and urged guests to keep them as souvenirs.
