NBCC - The rest of the story/after story from Mrs. Gaynair

[MissBlue]

yes Yvonne, i hear you - but if someone is registered, 'which one' of the guests coughed up the money, is sort of a moot point - cause if both people are registered, and the room is properly paid-for, with both occupant's names' listed, the hotel won't always necessarily know WHOSE money it is. i can use myself as an example - back in the day me and my sweetie divided our time between my hotel and his house - and although i made the booking, used my CC, and was the one who interacted with the hotel, gave them our names, etc., he indeed contributed to the costs.

I understand what you are saying, MissBlue. I just wanted to clarify that SHE was the paying guest, he was the additional registered guest. You specifically stated that he was a paying guest & I just wanted to make it clear. Yes, the room was paid for; he stayed there as a guest. In this case, the extra guest was an unemployed male. Not likely he contributed all that much. Cooking skills probably, maybe some fresh food, companionship. Actual financial contribution... doubtful.

Bottom line... people need to use common sense & take personal responsibility. If you're an adult, act like one folks... even on vacation. I see these concepts completely ignored when people are on vacation in Negril.
