Ever snuck into a Hampton Inn or other hotel for free breakfast?

I was in D.C. recently and stayed at a Hampton Inn. Breakfast is from 6-10 AM and it was pretty busy the time I went down to the buffet area.

I got to thinking…how would they know if you just walked in a got a free meal? Obviously if you look homeless it wouldn’t work. Probably if you had casual work clothes on with with a laptop bag of some sort and came through the back.

I’ve never done this but I’ve often contemplated it. Seems very easy to do.

I sneak out without getting the breakfast. Could be the move.

Never just to eat, but I have met clients for breakfast meetings at their hotels and eaten the free breakfast. Most times it was when they had a flight out that day or were leaving after checking out.

I only sneak into hotels to poop on roadtrips.

Never purely for breakfast, but will use their restrooms on a road trip. The lobby bathrooms aren't used very often and way cleaner than a typical gas station. I just walk in like I'm staying there. If there's some food, I'll grab a muffin for the road.

I've done this over 20 times when picking up a boss or coworker who was staying at such a place. My favourite moment was I smoothly timed my entrance into a swanky Marriott lounge and had quality scrambled eggs, a boutique cappuccino, bacon and fruit while my boss was eating a shitty continental breakfast outside with the peasants. He was so blown away by my chutzpah when he saw me wrapping up my free meal, lads.

In Pensacola, there is a Hilton next door to a Hampton.

I usually stay at either for the Pensacola Beach brawl events. I’ll walk over to the Hampton if staying at the Hilton (since I would pass it) and catch breakfast there.

I don’t feel bad at all because Hilton owns HI&S..

No but being in outside sales it’s a great place to take a dump

So is Micheal’s Arts and Crafts because there’s not many dudes who shop there.

If you wear a white bathrobe and get your hair a little wet, you can do anything at a hotel that you’re not staying at.

I have not eaten but when staying at a different hotel than others with work I might get a cup of coffee.

Will also stop at a hotel to shite if needed.

Back in the old days before free breakfast, there was a HJ on the corner of Hwy. 171 and I-10 in L.C. We would party and on the way home stop there. Our waitress one time ask are y'all here for the convention? I looked at my friend and say yes. We ask her what room do you think we are in? She says 1st or 2nd floor? We reply 2nd. Gives us a number on the second floor, we subtract 10 from it and charge it to that number, even the tip. Looks much easier now.

Easy to do. I was sitting in the breakfast area one time for a while preparing for a meeting when I wanted multiple people roll in who were clearly not guests. Some of them even knew the staff by name and were friendly with them. lol.

No different than stealing something from Best Buy.

Course I view piracy the same way. Most people reconcile their morality differently though, as though they have some "right" to stolen media.

There is a decent holiday inn express in Santa Cruz I used to stay in when doing work there. The hippie front desk persons would turn a blind eye to the obvious vagrants smashing the breakfast bar. Didn't really bother me much.... until.... the afternoon I decided I try out the sauna and a couple naked homeless bums decided they wanted a steam as well
