When the couple and the rest of the group left Nagoya, hotel staff discovered a spare toilet seat was missing and immediately contacted the tourist’s travel agency demanding that it be returned. The staff also reported the theft to the police.

According to Chinese daily Huanqiu, the couple returned the seat to the hotel when they arrived at their next destination, Mt. Fuji. They also attached an apology letter with it.

"I hope the hotel and local travel agency can treat this with leniency. I promise this behaviour won't happen again," part of the statement reads.

Hopefully the toilet seat wasn't made in China...
