A very puzzling question, what happened to the other dollar?

Three men checked into a $30 hotel room for which they paid $10 each.
The next day, the manager realized that the men had been overcharged for a $25 hotel room. She gave the bellhop $5 to return to the three men.

On the way to their room the bellhop decided to keep $2 for himself so he wouldn't have to make change. The bellhop gave $1 for each man.

The three men had now paid $9 each, or a total of $27. This plus the $2 the bellhop kept to himself makes a total of $29.

What happened to the other dollar?
