Hotels

Have you ever stayed in a hotel and things sort of went crazy? Well here's what happened to me this weekend. So our square dance held a federation dance (this is a dance that is held once a quarter around the state) so you normally spend a night at a hotel if your not hosting the dance. So off we go to N. Charleston and I make reservation at a Hampton Inn, a pretty decent place to stay, and the rooms were great, clean. The problem came when taking my shower and washing my hair, well actually when I tried to dry my hair. They have these blow dryers on the wall, I turn mine on and think wow, this just doesn't sound quite right, then smoke starts coming out of it, and I turn it around to look inside when it caught on fire. You want to talk panic, I lost a contact because of a spark that came out of the blow dryer, so I unplug the dryer, and drop it in the sink, called the front desk to inform them, and was told don't worry, I'll get maint. to bring you another dryer. Another dryer, did I miss something, I didn't need another dryer, I bring my own any way, how about live up to your reputation and check out these appliance's you put in rooms, and maybe ask if the guest who paid $100.00 for a room is OK. I wrote to the head office of Hampton Inn and being that they are partners with the Hilton's I thought I would have received a response back. Nothing, no even a thank you for putting out the fire in our hotel. Maybe it's me, I guess I expect to much. Has anything like this ever happened to you? Let me know.
