At a BW in Paris last spring, a worker would approach our breakfast table each morning to get us to sign next to our room number. Most mornings, someone had already signed on our line. I have no idea if they were freeloaders or confused.

It was a very nice buffet and I'd risk embarassment tomorrow if I could put my hands on a plate of that pain au chocolat!
