Okay. Since we've had a lot of bad news/negativity around here lately, thought I would bring in something that we can laugh about.
What's the worst experience/service you've got from a hotel, that just made you laugh because if you didn't you'd sit down and cry?
I'm talking locked out of rooms with little or nothing on, wrong rooms given, cranky staff, you name it.
2nd worst I ever had was being given the wrong room after a long and tiring day, then having to pack everything again, go down to reception to get new key card, then up 6 floors (by stairs) because the only lift was broken. Argggh!
Worst was fusty old hotel, which I think was used as a 'base' for the local 'ladies of the night', festy carpet with stains I didn't want to know the origin of, a lift that took 5 minutes to go four floors (and could only hold 3 people) roaches (& lots of the little
s) plus a very dodgy floor plan that would be impossible in a fire (not to mention being right nxt to a train station and a window facing onto a brick wall covered in pigeon crap!) Oh, and the 'ensuite' was a tiny closet not big enough to swing a cat in, to use the loo you had to close the door to get around it so you could sit down! No hot water at all before 11am!
(Did I mention this was supposed to be a 'deluxe' room???
NEVER AGAIN will I book on someone else's advice as to 'good hotel at a reasonably cheap price')
How about yours?
