A guy calls his butler line and asks for the iron and iron board and gets a message that irons are dangerous and should not be provided to guests of St. Regis hotel Of course call to the English line made it possible within a second, but that left a fantastic impression on a guest.
hilarious....

maybe this guest had previously burnt down another st. regis hotel by leaving the iron on in their room....
