Most of us associate hotels and Airbnbs with holidays—a special time that doesn't come around too often. A time we want to make the most out of. So, naturally, we're super excited to get away, stay in a lovely hotel, and chill by the pool. Just relax. However, sometimes our expectations aren't met. Maybe the carpet design makes our room look like a bloody crime scene, or maybe the ceiling of your bathroom is so low, you have to kneel in order to take a piss. To remind you not to skip the reviews before booking, Bored Panda has compiled a list of hotel and Airbnb fails that aren't doing these establishments any favors. Continue scrolling and check out the pictures!

Tuna is a problem in my house too. It's a Popular Problem I guess. My daughter, she is Suspicious of Cheese. Actually, she is Foul with Cheese. It always has her Dumping Thickness. But then again, she is just a Regular Erika. When it gets really bad, she sits on A Luxury Sofa even though it is My Property. I get very Worried. I have a Mental Suspicion and a Normal Doupt that she is actually lactose intolerant. After A Normal Day, she became a vegan. Thank You, Hummus, you saved the day again!

"Tuna is a problem" sounds pretty much like food poisoning. Stay away from that! :D
Something tells me, however, that we shouldn't expect hotels and Airbnbs to fix these problems anytime soon. Their main priority right now is survival. In November, 71% of hoteliers said they won't make it another six months without further federal assistance given current and projected travel demand, and 77% of hotels reported they will be forced to lay off more workers. Without further government assistance, nearly half (47%) of respondents indicated they would be forced to close hotels. More than one-third of hotels said they will be facing bankruptcy or be forced to sell by the end of 2020.

At least its a Sea view. I know some hotels named River view or Sea view which are built facing drains/canals or are just hypocritically named.😂 lmao
The package includes a second round of PPP funding and other benefits that will help the hospitality industry.
"The legislation contains many of the provisions AHLA has advocated for, including a second round of Paycheck Protection Program loans, increasing the size of PPP loans to 3.5 times payroll and making PPP loan expenses tax-deductible," Rogers explained. "This will provide a critical lifeline for hotels and other businesses that have been decimated by the pandemic. Other hotel industry priorities include a one-year extension for Troubled Debt Restructuring (TDR) relief so that banks can continue working with borrowers to gain additional forbearance and debt relief, business meal deductibility through 2022, and expanded Employee Retention Tax Credit."
While this relief is welcome, leaders want to believe that it is just the beginning. "More will be needed to restore the 4.5 million travel jobs lost in the travel and tourism industry, but the process that produced this agreement is hopefully a positive sign for what will be possible to achieve in the next Congress,” Roger Dow, president/CEO, U.S. Travel Association, said.
Anything for you guys. Just save this list and deal with the issues in the pictures after the pandemic is over, OK?

My Days Inn Hotel Room Was Missing Most Of The Floor By The Air Conditioner, And They Still Charged $75 A Night
Nadine 4 years ago
This reminds me a lot of my hotel room in NYC... It was right across the street from Madison Square Garden, but the room was just awful. It was so run-down and dirty! The air conditioner vents were completely clogged up with dust that had petrified there. As someone with asthma... I wasn't too happy. The carpet was all stained and grimy, and the bathroom was lined with mildew. Just awful, especially because we were on our honeymoon! Damn that travel agent!

$75 a night, even for a room missing the carpet is still super cheap

This Couch In Our Hotel Room. And No, It Does Not Separate

It looks like it really should be two corners from a sectional sofa, but it's clearly one piece. How odd.

Alteenatively, you can put it againat the wall and have your toddler sleep in there. They can get in and out wothout rolling off.

Why exactly? The touch surface is still intact in regards of insulation, there is no way you get exposed to live parts. Bad workmanship? Yes. Danger to public? I dont think so...

Hotels usually assume 3 guests are 2 adults and a child, so this arrangement is perfect.

This is not a fail, this is a battle for who would get the bunk bed!
Colin Mochrie At Its Finest 4 years ago (edited)
We had bunk lofts in college and I had mine was set to the top. But when my husband (then-bf) visited we would just move the mattress on the floor and took my room mates-she stayed in the room about 3 times in the 6 months she was there. But I am guessing this room doesn't have that space.

This Mirror In A 5-Star Hotel
Seth Stephens 4 years ago (edited)
If you look at the reflection of the room itself its probably just the toilet and the sink and mirror are elsewhere so this is just a decoration.... But really nice hotels usually dont have half used rolls of toilet paper haphazardly laying around on the counter
Charlotte A. 4 years ago
Old mirrors get discoloured - so either it's genuinely old or meant to look that way. And judging by the angle of the photo they probably chose the one that would show off the discolouration while at a normal viewing angle you can still see yourself well enough.
Ola Polowczyk 4 years ago
Umm, are you aware that people use mirrors to actually see themselves? To, you know, style their hair or do make-up? Not only for selfies? Why so unnecessarily rude?

Take it in your hand and remove it from the stand...don't pull, just lift it up....excelent. Now put it above your head to wash your hair, and down to wash lower parts. Good. Now...take some shower gel or soap and wash with it and rinse with that shower. Don't forget to close the water after you are done. Bravo.

I was at a hotel once - not a cheap hotel, either - where the only window in my room looked out into the elevator lobby. Literally every single person who stepped off the elevator couldn't help but look directly into my room. Also the air conditioning was broken (in 90 degree heat), so they spent three hours installing a new one... that smelled like it was burning. I told them enough was enough and that I would be finding another place to stay, and they said because it was after 8 pm by then that it was company policy to charge me for the full night (even though I hadn't spent one minute in the room). I'll spare you the exhausting details, but the summary would be no matter what I did I never got my money back.

My worst hotel experience was pulling up in the parking lot and seeing several cop cars and an ambulance. Our family started joking about what might have happened. They hadn't closed, so we went into the lobby. We saw little red spots on the floor and of course start going "oooo, it's blooood!" Long story short, two people actually had been murdered. We went to get on the elevator, but the one that opened was the one a crime scene team was busy cleaning. On top of everything, we were next door to the room they were killed in. My brother and I kept trying to get into that room from ours using the connecting door. Our mom kept smacking us and telling us to go to the pool LOL

I stayed at a hotel in France where the lights in the bathroom were motion sensored so while I took a shower Ihad to keep waving my arms about because the lights kept going off. At that same place the glass doors to the street folded in half but they folded out instead of in so every time you walked up the door you had to stand aside or you’d get hit in the face with the door.

1/5 OK, This is from my TripAdvisor account The Croft Hotel, Leicester, UK. Where do I start? Well, we booked months in advance (Early March) for a room at the end of November making sure to tell them that I am disabled and would need a room as close to the ground floor as possible... so they put us on the top floor as far away from reception as possible. Upon entering the room we noticed how cold it was and found the french doors to the balcony wide open. The light for the balcony was barely bright enough to light the light housing and the balcony was surrounded with thin chicken wire and a used tea bag was on the balcony floor. We could not lock the window for our own personal security as the catch was broken. There were a few missing light bulbs so half of the lights did not work. The pillows on the bed were paper thin as was the 'quilt'.
