We
got kicked out of the Peabody regularly - one guy would check in, then maybe
a dozen others would show up for a poker party, bribe a busboy to get a few
5ths [liters] of whiskey (all of us underage going to aviation electronics
school at the training facility), and let the party begin.....

You guys would have been my worst nightmare at our hotel!

;-)

College students in Iowa City can be remarkably deceptive, looking SO
nice and respectable when they check in... Then, a few hours later,
after a few drinks...look out.

My night manager gives 'em one warning -- and then they're out on the
street, no refunds, don't ever come back. We're incredibly harsh
about this, because 99% of our guests are couples out for a getaway
weekend in the hot tub suites who really do NOT want a bunch of head-
bangers across the hall.

If you've ever had the misfortune of staying in a hotel that doesn't
keep control of parties, you know what a terrible experience it can
be. I've even been told by staff at VERY reputable hotels that there
was "nothing we can do" -- and that's just complete crap.
