Is This The Greatest Room Service Button Ever Invented? Pretty Much

When a Redditor posted an image of his hotel service phone, the rest of the world was in awe at the availability of one special service.

You’re lying on your bed, looking at the room service remote thing and suddenly your whole view on the world is shifted: there’s a button that orders pizza. Well, in the US, the land of dreams, there is such a button – and thanks to Reddit/Imgur, the world now knows:

And it’s not an uncommon occurrence, said one Redditor:

My uncle owns a motel and I’ve talked to him about this years ago. There are three pizza places in town and all deliver and are all in his range for delivery. He cut a deal with one of the chains when he was setting up.

They “donated” some cash to help him get his motel up and running and in return every phone has a pizza button that dials right to their pizza chain.

So basically, it’s a speed dial access to the closest pizza delivery service. Wonderful:

Press the pizza and the emergency button at the same time for emergency pizza. Or why not wake-up pizza?

I’d be tapping that button all night long, especially if I could get a tasty Rotherham from Butler’s under a cloche, nogal. Next level.
