Hi, need some advice on using a hotel for the first time.
Do you just walk in and ask for a room and is it card only or can you pay by cash.
Any advice welcome. Jim |

"Is this post a wind up?
I think married and looking to book somewhere without using his card so as not to leave evidence? I may be wrong. "
Correct, I've stayed in dozens of hotels all over Scotland all prepaid for me.
So the question is legitimate as I was under the impression they wanted your card to cover charges you may incur. Jim |

Hi, I wasn't commenting on you MsDiva it's the other pointless comments that get made.
If you've nothing helpful to say when a question is asked why post a useless comment.
I've noticed this a lot on here that some folk take pleasure in making other folk look stupid.
And thanks to those that gave a positive reply. Jim
