You Won’t Get That Kind of Room Service: Turkish Hotel Fires Promiscuous Male Staff
Travel Blog • Valerie Conners • 09.17.08 | 12:19 PM ET
Ladies, take pause before indulging in your next foreign fling with that sexy bellhop—all male staff members at at the Image Hotel in Marmaris, Turkey, have been fired after a series of dalliances with guests, the AP reports. “The last straw was when I saw our bartender, who was a very decent man, walk out of the bathroom with a British tourist,” the hotel’s manager explained.
The hotel will now be staffed entirely by females, leading to my next, and perhaps obvious, question: What if steamy staff affairs are a non-gender-specific trend—will the number of male guests to the hotel skyrocket? And if there’s fallout, who will staff the hotel then?

You know, that decent bartender must have had the **it kicked out of him by his co-workers for getting them all fired from a job which had excellent ‘perks’.

Well, well, what a surprise! Every woman who has travelled on her own to Turkey/Istanbul knows that men are on the hunt for Western woman, I have never been to a country before where the men are so pro active to make a romance with you, keep in mind that 90% of them is ‘happily’ married with a Turkish lady with a couple of kids safely tossed away from the tourist centre, enjoy as long as you know it is just a fling and nothing more!
