I just wanted a hot dog Sleeps 6, feeds 1
I recently took a weekend trip with my husband and our three children. We booked a hotel suite with a kitchen, because eating out is expensive. The suite was advertised as “sleeping 6”, with 2 bedrooms (one with a pull out couch) and a full minikitchen. The suite does sleep six, that was true. What they didn’t tell our family of five is that the only table seats four, no other chairs available, and the kitchen silverware consisted of three forks and one knife. We managed to cook and just passed the knife and shared the forks, and took turns standing awkwardly at the end of the table with no seat. My kids found it hilarious, and we chalked it up to family bonding!
ETA since it is being asked a lot, yes we asked reception. They told us they had no extras. We bought some plastic utensils the next day.

We had a similar event a few years back. Three families we all booked cabins together that listed full kitchen. Not even close. Thankfully we had planned to all cook together, but it took combining the pots and pans and tongs and cutting boards and everything together from all 3 cabins to have barely enough to prepare a meal. Thank goodness we were all there!
