You may also find someone at the entrance will step in to help. Has been a few occasions where I've been travelling alone and behind someone getting refused and (if they seem like a nice person/group) I will step forward and say "I've got no guest today, so you can go in as mine". If they are being not so nice about the refusal then I'll stay quiet - best not to get involved.
