Today in Event Planning: issues every hotel in the world must have. Bad Floorplans. All hotels must feature floorplans that are not to scale, missing doors and pillars, provide incorrect measurements, arcane iconography (without legends) and do not line up with each other.
@matt_merkle Slightly similar, the venue I have for my next marathon doesn't have fiber optics and nobody dared to tell us (Kinda dumb of us not to ask before as well but it seemed too obvious to ask)
@matt_merkle @GamesDoneQuick dude I feel you so bad, I'm a floor estimator and I have a strong feeling architects exist only to make life miserable when it comes to plans.
@matt_merkle @GamesDoneQuick One time, we booked a venue we'd used before and they'd built a wall across the middle of the main room. They didn't think to tell us this when we asked if anything significant had changed and it wasn't on the floor plans we were given!
@matt_merkle Bonus points if the plan is outdated and shows walls or rooms which have moved or don't exist any more
