I do not believe American electrical sockets are used anywhere in Europe.
I can’t read the descriptions from the photo but from the length of the words it doesn’t look like any of the buttons would get you orange juice.

Krissa,

“juice.” would be a full sentence if it were capitalized and “Juice” was the imperative form of the verb “to juice”.

I love when periods are used for single words! It’s very final and authoritative – that juice is for real, people. It is: juice.

The explanation may be that Breakfast is the bellhop.
He can only carry your bags to the door.

My apologies. If I was asked where it was taken I would have guessed Europe. I don’t see how any Anglophone could write that without noticing how badly worded it is.

The housekeeping staff spoke Spanish (not unusual in the south), but no one working behind the desk had any accents to speak of. And the hotel certainly wasn’t “best” by any standard.

I find that motel to be neither the best or western.

I was told in the e-mail it was taken in Raleigh, NC. I can’t speak to the writer’s first language, but it seems there should have been someone in the Best Western to proofread.

It looks like this photo was taken where English isn’t the writer’s first language.
