What is The Scooby Doo Treatment?
1.
When a mixed-gender group of teen-aged friends or relatives enters a hotel and the innkeeper automatically assumes that their rooms will be gender-segregated. May also apply to people staying at a private residence.
Originates from the consistency seen in hotel check-ins by the gang in the Scooby Doo cartoons.
It took so long to get checked in because even though Shauna & I and Sam & Charlotte are couples, the desk clerk gave us the scooby doo treatment.
