美国酒店最长住客十年后退房
<p>美国弗吉尼亚州一位老妇在万豪酒店旗下一处套房酒店居住十年后于上周正式退房，成为该酒店历史上居住时间最久的住客。据悉，这位老妇现年79岁，2001年她丈夫去世后独自从新罕布什尔来到弗吉尼亚工作，并于当年8月4日正式入住这家酒店。她所住套房一月的房费比华盛顿地区普通公寓每月1500到1700美元的租金还要低，而且住酒店不必付水、电、有线电视等费用，而且每天有人帮忙铺床、整理房间，还可享用免费早餐和无线上网。十年来，老妇已经把酒店当成了自己的家，酒店员工和其他住户就是她的邻居。不过，由于年纪大，又有骨质疏松及类风湿性关节炎，老妇最后还是决定搬去跟女儿一起住。</p><p><span word="Last">Last</span> <span word="week">week</span>, 79-<span word="year">year</span>-<span word="old">old</span> <span word="Joy">Joy</span> <span word="Bricker">Bricker</span> <span word="checked">checked</span> <span word="out">out</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="TownePlace">TownePlace</span> <span word="Suites">Suites</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="Virginia">Virginia</span>.</p><p><span word="She">She</span> <span word="had">had</span> <span word="been">been</span> <span word="living">living</span> <span word="there">there</span> <span word="for">for</span> 10 <span word="years">years</span>.</p><p><span word="The">The</span> <span word="former">former</span> <span word="pilot">pilot</span> <span word="made">made</span> <span word="headlines">headlines</span> <span word="when">when</span> <span word="movers">movers</span> <span word="came">came</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="her">her</span> <span word="Falls">Falls</span> <span word="Church">Church</span>, <span word="Virginia">Virginia</span>, <span word="hotel">hotel</span> <span word="room">room</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="mark">mark</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="end">end</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="her">her</span> <span word="stay">stay</span>. <span word="Now">Now</span> <span word="ailing">ailing</span> <span word="with">with</span> <span word="rheumatoid">rheumatoid</span> <span word="arthritis">arthritis</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="osteoporosis">osteoporosis</span>, <span word="the">the</span> <span word="otherwise">otherwise</span> <span word="active">active</span> <span word="woman">woman</span> <span word="is">is</span> <span word="leaving">leaving</span> <span word="her">her</span> <span word="decade">decade</span>-<span word="long">long</span> <span word="home">home</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="move">move</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="with">with</span> <span word="her">her</span> <span word="daughter">daughter</span>, <span word="Christy">Christy</span> <span word="Winton">Winton</span>.</p><p><span word="Before">Before</span> <span word="leaving">leaving</span>, <span word="she">she</span> <span word="served">served</span> <span word="tea">tea</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="staff">staff</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="media">media</span>, <span word="all">all</span> <span word="eager">eager</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="meet">meet</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="woman">woman</span> <span word="with">with</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="title">title</span> <span word="of">of</span> "<span word="longest">longest</span> <span word="extended">extended</span>-<span word="stay">stay</span> <span word="guest">guest</span>" <span word="in">in</span> <span word="Marriott">Marriott</span> <span word="hotel">hotel</span> <span word="history">history</span>, <span word="in">in</span> <span word="her">her</span> 500-<span word="square">square</span>-<span word="foot">foot</span> <span word="suite">suite</span>. <span word="She">She</span> <span word="outlasted">outlasted</span> <span word="six">six</span> <span word="different">different</span> <span word="managers">managers</span> <span word="at">at</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="hotel">hotel</span>.</p>
