but I don't like the sound of being surrounded by all those staff members. As far as I'm concerned, I'm not the boss and the staff are not my servants, they're my friends with whom I'm doing business. I hate being called "Sir", I don't even want to be called "Mister". I'm happy to be called Rex and I'm happy to call the staff members by the names they prefer to use. Even the slightest hint of obsequiousness on the part of any staff member would grate on me.
I usually like to stay at places where there are friendly staff members and guests who I can relate to, but who I can easily get away from if I want privacy.
