Just had the weirdest check-in at a hotel ever!

It culminated in me having to show a screenshot on my phone of my OLD passport! 😂

That was apparently admissible 🤷‍♂️

The only time a hotel has ever wanted to see a photo ID is overseas.

“Do you have your passport, sir?”

When I said I don’t carry my passport around unless I’m travelling overseas, he was confused.

I said I’ve never been asked for photo ID when checking into a UK hotel in London or anywhere else (and I’ve been to 100s of hotels).

“We do in this kind of hotel, sir.” 😅

And then they had me assigned to a room under “Paul Crawford.”

He was treating me really respectfully, but in more of a, “Yeah, I know you’re an international thief of some kind.”

He was apologising profusely but gave me a look at the end which said, “I know you’ve pulled a scam here but I don’t know what kind.” 😂
