(Never get an Italian mad!) So we both just co-existed in the laundry room.
I was kind of curious about the 3 & 6 thing too! If anything I think it should be the other way around, because the dryers are much larger and could fit a couple of loads in them.
Another lady and I were doing laundry and two men came in while I was there and brought a grocery bag of clothes in and put them in the dryer. I was wondering where they washed them, since she had the 3 washers before I got them?
Were they putting dirty wet clothes into the dryer? 
I am quite sure you are not. It just seems like every time I tried to do laundry (and I tried early morning, afternoon and late at night)....it always seemed I had a wait except for that one time the woman let me have one of the washers. I found early morning to be the least busy time for doing wash. I know the sign in the laundry said to be "courteous" and please don't do wash after 10 pm....but I'd go up and check for availability at 9 pm and had to wait a long time to get a washer or dryer. Sometimes, I was just getting started at 10:30 or 11 pm. One night I finally completed my laundry around 1 am. It took that long between waiting for the washer and dryers---and I had made my first attempt at 8:30--9 pm. I'd get my wash done after waiting an hour....then have to take my wet clothes out and let them sit on the table for maybe another 60-90 min for someone to come and retrieve their clothes. I just feel when you have all those rooms at the Inn and only 3 washers, leaving at least 1 open is the courteous thing to do. There's just such competition for them. But if absolutely noone was around and you retrieved your clothes in a reasonable amount of time, I'd say you were being courteous. I'm talking mostly about the extremes. My dh and I timed a few people who left clothes in either the washer or dryer for like 4-5 hours ! That's just plain not right
