The thermometer on my desk is reading 28°C right now. If I had an air conditioner, I would probably turn it on right now. On the other hand… Maybe it’s a good thing I don’t. At least for the environment. But how do hotels, which…
It has been about 15 years since smoking was banned in restaurants, hotels and public buildings in the USA and Europe. Initially, hoteliers felt that they would be seen as poor hosts if they restricted the “personal freedom” of their guests. However, this is no longer the case.
