*Looks at the two dripping messes standing in the front lobby and the room suddenly becomes dark...except for some phantom spotlight shining on all three of us..*
Hmm, rooms...food...yet no mention of how to pay, however, out of benevolence I'll allow you two to stay providing you tell me the specifics of the room you are both looking for please.
*In the background a small Claymation penguin is waving a large blow-dryer in an attempt to dry you both off...*

*Attempts to not be blown over by the penguin* "Oh yes, I would like a room with one bed, one bath, with a kitchenette and if it could have a balcony that would be wonderful! And I can pay you in advance." *Pulls out a little purse* "How much?"

Now you just listen here, Snarky McGhostlypants, this has to be your first hotel because when a guy asks about a room, he's usually got money to pay for it. What, do you think I go to the car lot windowshopping? No, I go there cause it has the type of car I want. Do you think I'd eat a complementary appetizer, which you provided of your own free will I might remind you, if I didn't intend to pay for some service of yours? I came in here because it was the closest hotel on the road. You can see it's raining harder than Noah's flood out there, which means it's too dangerous to continue driving, especially as it's getting darker. I have an immediate need that exclusivly your establishment can fulfill. I'll take whatever room you have available. I'm soaked, as you can plainly see, I just need a place to shower and change, I can sleep in my car if I hav- is...that a penguin?...

*A thunderclap illuminates the room, bringing with it a power surge that restores the rest of the lights.*
*With his job complete, the claymation penguin waves goodbye before waddling away. A snap could be heard as one of the floor boards cave in.*
*Flicks a lightbulb and rapidly types on the clearly outdated computer.*
*Raises an eyebrow.* "Unfortunately, all balcony rooms are unavailable *outside penguins covered in raincoats swing from wires as they attempt to place a tarp over the crumbling balconies, smacking into each other and waving for someone to pull them up*, but we have spacious contenders on the first and second floor..."
*A series of bumps ends with a squash as another penguin crashes through the stairs leading to the second floor rooms. Picking himself up, the penguin readjusts his beak and puts back on his hardhat.*
*Types on the keyboard once more.* "First floor, rooms 103-110 are sanitized and available.'"
