When you're booking any accommodation, you're agreeing to its rules. Sounds basic, right? Believe it or not, some people still find this concept too difficult to understand. Or, even worse, they feel as if they're above everyone else and these rules don't apply to them. I'm talking stealing glassware as 'souvenirs,' leaving your underwear in the kettle, you know, the good stuff. Bored Panda has put together a list of some of the worst hotel and Airbnb guests, and it proves why we can't have nice things.

Kudos to all hoteliers around the globe for surviving yet another day of dealing with these monsters. Writing for Hotel Management, Glenn Haussman said there are 4 types of guests people in the industry love to hate. Let's start with the Never Happy Complainer. "This person is pissed. But don’t worry, it’s not you. There is something seriously wrong with this individual’s life, and for some reason, it’s the hotel’s fault. You know the type: Something small goes wrong and no matter what you try to do, it’s never good enough."

A simple complaint "the water in the shower wasn’t hot enough" turns into a sad display where apologies are met with more anger. But they don't want a simple apology. They need more. Turns out, repeated apologies and asking how you can make the situation better are no good as well. "This person is hell-bent on poisoning your soul and making you feel as awful as they do."

Then there are the Party People. "At full-service hotels and casino resorts in particular, I see these folks ready to party. But not the type of partying that makes you money at the bar. Nope, these folks orchestrate their own party by bringing in massively sized coolers jam-packed with more beer and other forms of booze than anyone can possibly drink. With no shame or respect for the hotel, they’ll mount a mission more complex than Normandy to bring in drinking supplies so they can save a few bucks and not buy your alcohol. And, of course, they leave the guestroom festooned with their remnants of cocktailing gone bad."

What about the 20 People, 1 Room, No Problem? "Yes, they know the room has a single king-sized bed and a small chair in the corner. But that didn’t stop them from reserving a room for one or two people, and then stealthily sneaking in many, many more. It’s a giant pain as they overstuff the room and expect you not to notice; especially after they just asked you for a dozen extra pillows and blankets and a roll-away cot."

Let's not forget the I’ll Just Sit Here Person. Glenn said there are some who seem to be lost. Nobody knows if they're staying at the hotel or not. Nobody knows because they simply sit in the lobby for many, many hours. And they aren't working or anything. Just hanging out while waiting for something, or someone. However, nobody knows who that special someone or something is as everyone's shift is over before they move a muscle.

I don't see the problem. Clean the glass, put it in a dishwasher and it's as good as new. In my country we had a tv-series about hotels where they used a special light to show where there were body fluids in the rooms. You'd be amazed about the results.

'We love a souvenir' say millions of tourists who try to break off stone at so many wonderful places. So, now, at some places like the pyramids, local authorities slap a five digit fine on you, because if they didn't the place would be gone, by now.

Has anyone ever stayed at an airbnb that was someones home? That's the original concept, yes, but aren't they allways just holiday apartments, furnished for that purpose? Not that it makes theft better, of course.

A thief is a thief. Just the way you have disgusting folks who registers one guest when they book an airbnb unit then shows up with two guests carrying several suitcases. The minute the host reminds him about the second guest rule, he gets defensive and nasty because he thinks that the host is in on his secret affair with a married woman. The next day, the registered guest decides to make up lies to discredit the airbnb listing because he was up in his feelings thinking the host cares that he is a married man clearly cheating with a married woman but acting like he is so proper. The guest leaves the Airbnb filthy which explains why the woman only stayed with him one night. The guest then leaves the only negative review that Airbnb every received and was clearly projecting. Moral of the story - man up and not try to mess up the hosts business when clearly you are the one with issues because karma will get you.
