I just checked into a hotel, went up to the room they gave me, and walked in to find a big naked black lady sitting on the bed smoking pot!!
Needless to say I apologized profusely, ran back down to the front desk and demanded my money back. I'm safe at a Hampton Inn now. With my deadbolt on!
Has anyone else gotten assigned a room with someone already in it before?
OMG! Nothing that crazy, but a neighbor had that happen but nothing crazy came of it except having to move luggage and the hotel (MGM Grand Vegas) not showing any care for their mistake.
I was on the other side of the door once. I was watching tv and some random group of girls tried to get into the room. I had the deadbolt on, so they didn't get far though.

Yes! This happened to H and I when we were moving up here. Drove all day, stopped and checked in at a comfort suites, and when we get to the room someone's stuff was in there.
I would have freaked the f out if the person had actually been in there!

DH had a room double assigned at Disney. They'd been having computer system problems. There wasn't anyone in the room, but it was occupied by someone else's luggage.
OMG. We had something like this happen in a hotel in Chicago. Luckily the chain was on the door and there was no nudity or marijuana involved that I know of, but we did get assigned to an occupied room. It was bizarre and embarrassing. We still stayed at the hotel but it was a Priceline deal and I have been hesitant to use them again--it was a weird hotel.
I had this happen - I was given a key and my boss' room # when out of town for work
The key worked, but the 'do not disturb' sign on the door gave me pause, and I went back to the lobby to double check the room number. The girl at the desk was panicked, and asked, "did you go in the room!?!? as soon as she saw me. That could have been awkward.

I have! It wasn't that dramatic but it was at the nicest hotel in town. We checked in, hauled our stuff up to the 12th floor and the door to the room was locked from the inside. Hauled our stuff back down to the lobby. They thought we were idiots or lying and made us haul our stuff back up with a security guard. He couldn't open it, and wanted to make us to back down to the lobby and I started to get pissy and demanding.
There was a big festival that weekend, so they said the only room they had open had 2 double beds. I was pissed and kept complaining and demanding a better room (I even threw in that I wanted a room with a view of that night's fireworks). We ended up in one of their biggest suites. Cali King bed, two living rooms, two bathrooms. Full view of the fireworks and the entire city. It was spectacular.
I didn't go into an occupied room but it did happen to me several times that while being inside the hotel room the maid came in to clean.
Once we were just watching tv and the cleaning lady didn't see the don't disturb sign so she came in, saw us and without apologising run away. In other ocassion we were having sex and the lady tried to came in, but fortunately we had the deadbolt!

On our recent vacation...after a long day of travel we checked in to the hotel but needed to wait for our room for several hours, so we ate lunch, went to the bar, went to the pool and when we finally got to our room, we peeled off our bathing suits and flopped on the bed in exhaustion...in walks the maid
