The rooms numbers vs. floor numbers in our hotel

I don't envy room 34, imagine sharing a floor with a carpark

[u/iamdabrick → u/xi111]

to learn more, look up cars rule 34

[u/clarinetJWD → u/iamdabrick]

I did and all I found was r/carsfuckingdragons

[u/FrostyJockey → u/iamdabrick]

🎵Life is a hiiiiiighwaaaaaay🎵

[u/Xenc → u/FrostyJockey]

🎶 Love is a long, long road 🎶

[u/Xenc → u/Xenc]

Lucia, do you know why you’re here?

[u/LonePaladin → u/xi111]

How about if you get assigned 22?

[u/xi111 → u/LonePaladin]

Realistically this just wouldn't happen. These rooms either don't exist entirely, or are used as offices/small storage spaces. Source: I work at a hotel reception

[u/mnoram → u/LonePaladin]

Or 7 or 8

[u/Clean_Bat5547 → u/mnoram]

Or 16

[u/The_Troyminator → u/xi111]

You’d never get any sleep with all those toddler cars playing on the swings all night.

[u/christopher_mtrl → u/xi111]

I'd happily take it. The logo on the elevator matches to this hotel. It's on a hill, the header photo show the setup. Single room on fifth floor looks nice. There's an access to where the "upper" car park is (shed at the left of the hotel).

[u/Efficient-Network-38]

The more you read the worse it gets 🤣🤣

[u/JCambly → u/Efficient-Network-38]

How do you get to floor 22?

[u/GlobetrottinExplorer → u/JCambly]

what about 16??

[u/DisasterLievelde]

Where is rooms 7 and 8?

[u/AnAccidentalRedditor → u/DisasterLievelde]

Beside rooms 16 and 22.

[u/PersonalityWinter382 → u/AnAccidentalRedditor]

And below rooms 30-32

[u/Big_Z_Beeblebrox]

Are you near exmoor by any chance?

[u/incongruity → u/Big_Z_Beeblebrox]

We are, in fact!

[u/Big_Z_Beeblebrox → u/incongruity]

Thought so, those are older buildings so the layout seems a little weird, but it makes more sense when you take a good look around

[u/incongruity → u/Big_Z_Beeblebrox]

Interesting - I had the impression this was newer-ish construction (it certainly looks newer than anything in the area). I’ll explore more tomorrow.

[u/Big_Z_Beeblebrox → u/incongruity]

I suppose it could be new by comparison but I believe it's about 140 years old this year

[u/EricHaley]

Did this building previously serve another purpose?

[u/ohkendruid → u/EricHaley]

My guess is that the numbers are from long ago, and they didn't want to change the numbers of existing residents just to make things tidier.

It seems charming to me. You would learn fast enough if you were in this building very often.

[u/surfmaster]

Me, looking for my room #22

[u/kaede_miura]

Me wen my key proudly bears the number 8

[u/Lisa_Greeneo]

Whoever numbered these floors never had to explain it to a guest at the front desk.

[u/crimziondark]

Part of me wants to know if the rooms are exactly laid out as listed on that sign there

[u/ohkendruid]

I appreciate the 0 and -1 as floor numbers. Keep straight M, L, and P1 is confusing by comparison.

[u/TransportationJaded8]

This reminds me of the horrible numbering system the Virgin Casino in Las Vegas has.

 It’s a shame there’s no Level 5

[u/NathanPatty08]

annoying or infuriating, sure. Not a "you had one job" situation though.

room numbers could've been arranged like that before this became a hotel, or renovations/rearragements have happened over time and changing numbers would've been a tedious operation.

[u/Serenity1423]

But where are 7 and 8?

[u/PrincipleWhich8974]

Good lord!

[u/1337k9]

Maybe some rooms are reserved as storage or for other purposes

[u/Tomme599]

Am I missing the joke? The first digit of the room number is the floor level. It’s just a small hotel.

[u/incongruity → u/Tomme599]

Look again.

The room numbers' ordering does not match the floor number ordering.

• Level 2 has rooms 28-33.
• Level 3 has rooms 23-27.
• Level 4 has room 34.

[u/Z370H370]

I'm looking for room 16 please

[u/Clean_Bat5547 → u/Z370H370]

It's opposite room 22. Take a right at rooms 7 and 8.

[u/Clean_Bat5547]

Just hope you don't get room 7, 8, 16 or 22.

[u/Longjumping-Solid680]

LEVEL ZERO?

Sounds like a 60's Japanese Monster Movie.
