I Have A Question

During our stay in TX, we stayed at a hotel. My in-laws graciously covered the cost for everyone who needed one. That helped us out tremendously. I have no question there. No, my question is where do people's manners go when they stay at these places???

I understand that people are traveling, perhaps driving long distances with their kids. I have been there and done that many times with my own kids. Maybe you are one of a few adults on a trip with a bus load of noisy teenagers. Whatever the case may be, is it really that difficult to have a cut off point. For instance no running up and down the halls past 9PM. Or maybe remember that the hotel doors will slam if you don't slow it down. You should realize that just because you aren't going to bed, doesn't mean nobody else is. Likewise, just because you are leaving at o dark thirty, doesn't mean your neighbors are.

I just wonder where people's manners go. Did they leave them at home? Or were they simply that rude to start with? Whatever the case may be, the whole time we were there, we had door slammers, people running up and down the halls at all hours, as well as shouting matches. We didn't stay in a dumpy hotel either. It was a nice one. Brand new in fact, in a good part of town. So why all the horrible manners??? Maybe I can write a book about hotel etiquette!
