If this is the rule, there are exceptions. Back in my hotel days, we never overbooked- but lots of other places did.

Other hotel stuff: most hotels hire illegals to clean the rooms. Sometimes the illegals will get together and 'strike' by leaving rooms dirty, bloody/pubic hair sheets, etc.

Maintenance crews are notorious for being lazy. If your room has a maintenance problem, take comfort in the fact that the maintenance crew already knows about it and doesn't care.
