have been shocking to me, I should have dead bolted the door. the hotel has been closed now, but it was an iffy at best hotel when I stayed there, so I bolted out of bed knowing that staying in a not so great hotel had some risk, although I guess it is entirely possible that the guy had been given a room key by accident, I know I once had that situation where a couple extended their stay and I had already chosen that room so when I walked in on them they were pretty frightened, but I had my luggage with me, in this case, pudgy didn't so I feel confident he was not on the up and up.
