Worst hotel experience ever? Where & What happened?

Question

Did they do anything for your trouble?

Answer 1

across the street form Disneyland in Anaheim, the door knob fell off and we had to go in and out through the window. It was the only vancancy. They did nothing.

Answer 2

Many years ago I was staying at a Ramada with my parents. We had been to see friends and had come back to our hotel room late at night. My father heard a strange scraping noise on the other side of the bathroom wall and, since he is suspicious by nature, he sat down on the edge of the tub and watched. Next thing he knows a hook breaks through the wall and takes a chunk out. My father quietly closed the bathroom door and called the front desk to inform them that there was a psycho making a hole in our bathroom wall. Well, obviously, the guy at the front desk thought my dad was drunk or on drugs (it was the 70s afterall) so he just said "Whatever. Call the cops". My father called the cops and they too thought he was a crazy tweaker but they did send a patrol car out just in case. By the time the cop got there and my dad opened the bathroom door, the hole was about 16 inches in diameter. At which point the cops looks at my dad amazed and says: "Well, I'll be damned!".

They couldn't do anything because they didn't have a warrant and the guy next door said the hole was there all along. The hotel just gave us a different room and kicked the psycho out (I guesss, don't really know what happened to him).

All in all, not an experience I would like to repeat.

Answer 3

It was in Munich, we arrived on a rainy day, we stopped at the hotel and the receptionist said that we had the wrong hotel and it was just across the street, so we had to carry our bags in the rain and walk to the other hotel, the other receptionist looked at the vouchers and said that you are in the wrong hotel, it is the other one we've been before ( they both had almost the same names,) so we had to carry our bags again and walk in the rain, my husband was furious, it did not end there...
The receptionist apologized and gave us a free drink at the bar and gave us our key to the room, once again we had to carry our bags ( there was no one to help) and went up to the room, my husband opened the door and there was a man inside, so, for the fourth time we carried our bags and went down again!!!

once again the receptionist apologized and we had another free drink at the bar, after all that we've been through we ended up with 2 drinks at the bar
But later on it turned out to be a great trip

Answer 4

On my honeymoon we stopped overnight in Ft Lauderdale, Florida before our cruise. We walked into this beautiful lobby, all brand new and shiny, and thought, "Wow!" After registering, we got into the elevator to go up to our room and noticed that it looked a little dingey. Then we stepped out into a time warp. It was like something out of the 50's, but not in a kitschy kind of way, more like nothing had been done to the place since the 50's. Our room was small and tacky and then when I pulled back the covers to climb into bed, I found a blood stain. Looked like someone had their period and no one changed the sheets. EEEWWWW!!!!!!! I was already not feeling well and we called around to other hotels only to find they were all full. I honestly can't remember the name of the hotel, but they did nothing for us, just changed the sheets. We called our travel agent (mother-in-law) and told her never to book anyone there EVER again. To this day she could tell you the place and not to go there!!!!

Answer 5

We stayed in a place called The Marie-antoinette in New Orleans for Mardi Gras. The room was not air conditioned and it was hotter than Hell in that room. Also, there were a lot of leaks in the cielings all around the hallways, and of course our room was all the way at the end of this labyrinth. My friend stole my bathing suit top and ran down the hallway. I chased after him and he slid on wet carpet and fell. I didn't have enough time to slow down so I fell over him. We were so bruised that walking around Bourbon street was a *****.

Answer 6

I've seen everything from cockroaches running across the floor, to blood on the window and curtains, to ants all over the bathroom counter. But I don't mind (except for the blood, that was just creepy), but I experienced all this in hotels that are in 3rd world countries

Answer 7

I took off work on a Friday to get a hotel room with my boyfriend for our one year anniversary. I made the reservation and charged it to my credit card because it was a surprise. He always wanted a room with a hot tub and they had them at the hotel. I told them at work that my friend was coming in from out of town. I lied because I didn't want to sound like a skank and the office I work in was very conservative. It was none of their business anyways. On Tuesday, after our weekend, the hotel sent me a letter saying "thanks for staying with us... please fill out this survey about your stay". The hotel sent it to me at work! And my boss didn't realize it was addressed to me (I never get personal mail at work) and he opened it! The hotel must have gotten my work address through my credit card some how. I was furious! You better believe I filled out that survey and sent it back! And I wrote a whole letter along with it. No, the hotel didn't do anything for my trouble.

Answer 8

Road trip to New York with friends. Had to stop for the night in Alabaster, Alabama. Stayed a motel 6. Awful place. Blood in the sheets and needles on the nightstand. Also bugs in the toilet. Not much sleep in hillbilly hell.

Answer 9

I stayed at a Motel 6 once, got in the room, got into bed and watched TV for a while, then my legs started itching like mad hell... I pulled back the sheets and there was what looked like dog hair ALL OVER the bed.
I called the front desk and they gave me another room free of charge.

Answer 10

My daughter jumped in the hot tub and her foot hit a broken piece of equipment in the hot tub. She sliced open her heel. We had to take her to the emergency room to have her heel sewn up. What did the hotel do - absolutely nothing. Oh, they did close and drain the hot tub because of the blood.

Answer 11

i was in rome in a crappy hotel that turned out to be a converted insane asylum. the bar ran out of wine and beer so we walked down to the next hotel. when we got back there were strangers on our balcony, they had scaled the exterior wall and climbed the railing they were resting so they could up to the next floor to a room full of college females. the guy i was sharing a room with- who was a linbacker- got into a fight with them and they left.
