Service With a Smile

This is a snippet from a lovely 2010 diary that Lesley bought for me yesterday – thought I would share it.

A man wrote a letter to a Midwest town hotel he planned to vist on his vacation. He wrote “I would very much like to bring my dog with me. He is well groomed and well behaved. Would you be willing to permit me to keep him in my room with me at night?”

An immediate reply came from the hotel owner, who said ” I have been operating this hotel for many years. In all that time I have never had a dog steal towels, bed clothes, silverware or pictures off the walls. I’ve never had to evict a dog for being drunk and disorderly and I’ve never had a dog run out without paying his bill. Yes, indeed your dog is welcome in my hotel. And if your dog will vouch for you – you’re welcome to stay here too!”
