Guess the most common guest request

It’s always interesting to see what guests prioritize during their stay… I work the hospitality desk at a busy hotel, and you would be surprised at how often people ask for extra pillows! What’s the most unique or common request you get at your front desk?

It’s funny you mention extra pillows; I get at least one request for those every shift too! I’ve noticed that keeping a few extra sets in a visible spot helps speed things up. What unique items have surprised you on your request list?

I hear you on the extra pillows! It’s like they multiply overnight. I’ve found that people can also get pretty creative with their requests — just last week someone asked for a rubber duck for their bath.
