The Unexpected Bill

A five-star Hotel leads to an unforgettable payment dispute

By Rohitha LankaPublished about a year ago 1 min read

One day, a woman went to a five-star hotel to spend a day. But she was not a big money maker. And she did not have much understanding of money either. After spending a luxurious night, she went to the cashier to pay the bill the next day before leaving.

When she saw the bill, she saw the star. The bill was $500. Here is a conversation between the cashier and the woman:

Woman - There is no way I can get such a bill.

Cashier - Why do you say that, madam? This is a five-star hotel. There is a swimming pool.

Woman - So I did not use it.

Cashier - So the lady could have used it.

Cashier - Look at this lady. There are international conference rooms, nightclubs & movie theatres.

Woman - Oh, I did not use any of them.

Cashier - So the lady could have used it. From the cashier, knowing that there was no solution, the woman took out her checkbook and wrote a check.

Cashier - Ma'am, I made a mistake and charged her $500, not $250.

Woman - No, there is no mistake. I deducted $250 because you slept with me last night.

Cashier - Oh, ma'am, don't lie. Where did I sleep with you last night?

Woman - Why are you saying that? I was here yesterday. You were here too. So you had to sleep with me.
