Rich Old Man Dresses up as a Pauper to Check on His Five-Star Hotel Staff – Story of the Day

When a poorly dressed man was refused service at a five-star hotel, Audrey decided to extend an invitation to her house. She introduced the man to her husband, and he stayed with them for three days. But then he revealed his true identity and some shocking news.

“This is a five-star hotel. We have the right to refuse service. Please, leave, or I will call security right now,” Audrey heard Whitney’s voice sneer at someone. She turned around and saw an older man in poor clothing at the reception desk.

Whitney had been a receptionist at the hotel in New York for as long as Audrey. But they were not friends because Whitney was a mean person.

“Please, miss. You just need to call the manager, and he’ll understand,” the older man begged, and instead of listening to him, Whitney picked up the phone to call the guards, giving the man a disdainful look. Audrey decided to step in before security got there.

“Sir, please come with me,” she told the man, who raised his eyebrows at her and followed her outside. “Sir, I’m so sorry. But this hotel is so exclusive and so dismissive that they won’t ever let you in here.”

“Why? If people have enough money then they should be allowed inside,” the man countered.

“No. The manager has trained everyone to refuse service unless people are wearing expensive clothes. I don’t know why,” Audrey explained. “But you look tired and like you need a place to stay. My husband and I have a small room that we rent on AirBnB sometimes. It’s empty now, so you can stay there as long as you need.”

“I see. Wow, young lady. That’s a very kind offer. My name is Nicholas by the way. It’s nice to meet you,”

“Likewise. I’m Audrey, and here’s my husband,” Audrey stated as a car pulled up in front of them. “Hi Frank! This is Nicholas. He’s our guest tonight!”

The woman helped Nicholas get into Frank’s car, and they rode home. She told Frank everything that happened and why Nicholas ended up with them. He was nodding by the end of the tale. “One time, we wanted to rent a room and use Audrey’s employee discount on Valentine’s Day, and they refused us. I thought it was insane since my wife works there, but they said it was policy,” Frank revealed while driving.

“Why didn’t you quit?” Nicholas asked from the back seat.

“Oh, I would’ve. But Frank got into an accident shortly afterward and lost his job,” she replied.
