Here are some non-written rules about staying in hotel rooms. Some of them might seem obvious, or even a bit humorous in nature but they all make sense to a certain degree! Follow these rules, and you will be sure to enjoy your stay at the hotel with far less trouble.

1. Do not host a drinking party in your room.
2. Do not play loud, thumping music in your room.
3. Do not shout or bang on the walls of your room.
4. Do not watch a very loud TV program at 2 in the morning.
5. Do not flirt with the desk receptionist at weird hours of the night – that is just creepy.
6. Do not fill the ice bucket with water and drink it – that is just not proper.
7. Do not bring an animal into your room if it is not allowed, even if you are good at sneaking it in.
8. Do not steal towels – come on, have a bit of decency!
9. Do not leave money or other personal items out when you leave – you never know who room service might be.
10. If you are staying for a prolonged period of time, you should tip your room service and the maid who cleans. That is just polite, and they will appreciate it.
11. Do not flirt with your maid, that is just creepy.
12. Do not randomly call rooms from your phone as a prank -  come on, are you seriously over 7 years old?
13. Do not stash things in the room to come back for later – seriously, that is just plain weird.
14. For your own good, do not bring a black light into the room and turn it on – you might not sleep well afterwards.
