Jumping at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Richmond, Virginia
Many of our featured bed jumpers are travellers who spend a lot of time in hotels. These are people who know the lodging experience intimately because they stay at hotels often for business.
Sometimes hotel guests stay at a hotel property for weeks or even months at a time. It could be because of a contract position out of town, or perhaps a guest relocating to a new geographic location.
Regardless of the reason for frequent or extended hotel stays, these guests share something in common: the desire to somehow make the hotel guestroom feel like home.
Lindsay recently sent in these awesome images of her at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Richmond, Virginia. Lindsay was at the hotel for a lengthy five weeks…
…we lived here for five weeks, so this was bound to happen eventually!
It’s pretty hard to miss the additional wall decorating going on in Lindsay’s guestroom, so of course I inquired as to what the motivation was for the scheme. As suspected, with five weeks away from friends and loved-ones, a little extra spice on the walls helps make a guestroom feel like home!
Haha, well the wallpaper is another byproduct of our boredom. Well, my roommate’s boredom that is. She missed her boyfriend so much that she wrote it on the wall in crepe paper, took a picture and sent it to him. It kept evolving over the five weeks and went from plain words to being surrounded by hearts, postcards, and photos. She sent him pictures of it at every stage, there are so many pictures that she could have a mini flip book! The green boa on the side surrounding the photos on the wall is my solution to not being able to stick pushpins into the wall. We used the framed art above the beds as bulletin boards to tape up photos and letters.
