But not necessarily compared with locals.

You make a point. The person who thinks they can pay for a hotel room with a photo of someone else's credit card or wants to pay in cash in the morning after their stay. The guy who walks in at 12:01 in the morning and wants to stay 2 nights for the price of one because it's technically the next day. The guy who is there at 2am with a different sex worker every week and wants to rent by the hour. The guy who gets a single king standard room and thinks because we rented him a room, he gets to invite all his extended family around to have a party by the pool. Most bachelorette parties. Those are all locals.

On the other hand, every children's hockey team. Every spring breaker who drives drunk into your parking lot and refuses to believe that you're sold out. Every snowbird whose idea of socializing is demanding that you change hotel policy. Every middle aged racist in town for a fishing tourney who decides to talk politics because they see a captive audience to give them the attention their estranged family no longer will. Bachelorette parties for destination weddings. Those are all tourists.

Either is likely to sneak pets into their room, but the tourist is way more likely to expect you to buy that their yorkie (it's always a yorkie) is an "emotional support animal."
