(trademark pending)
Business travelers, recreational travelers, novice travelers, professional travelers, space travelers…they’ve all experienced at least once, the thrill of checking into a hotel room and seeing a slightly bleached but still clearly defined vomit puddle near the bathroom door. Or a speck of blood on the shower tile. Maybe the random collection of short curly hair behind the door. Possibly a Rorschach test pattern of white droplets and splatter on the sofa. Finally there’s a place to share these images without the social media stigma you might get from your children, parents or spiritual advisor who would look askance and ask “What the hell is wrong with you?” followed by “What kind of dumps do you stay in? Are you really that cheap?” At hotelnightmares.com we know that filth doesn’t operate by a star system and that nice hotels are just as likely to have a dookie stain on the bed spread as that joint your boss put you in near the New Orleans airport last week. So share, stare…we don’t care. It’s all about the ish at hotelnightmares.com

Along Came A Spider
A flight attendant at a hotel in Milwaukee found this little bugger lowering itself down to join her in bed. Shrieks and hairspray sent it RAPIDLY back up to safety on the ceiling.
That Is One Jacked Up Lamp
At an airport hotel near Baltimore, the photo hardly does it justice. The faux wood base is falling off in chunks and the lampshare has stains and holes and even a slash.
BUGS!
From Mark: this little critter and many of its relatives have taken over my bathroom after I arrived to a clogged toilet and had to wait over half an hour for someone to come deal with it. Crown Plaza Cleveland South.
Someone Went Commando
From "Anna": I was staying in a Hilton. A HILTON. And was looking for a blanket in the drawers and found….. Someone’s used black panties. AND the hotel didn’t even take them away that night, but I did get free breakfast the next morning. So there’s that at...
Peek A Boo
From a flight attendant stuck in a La Quinta: Peek~a~Boo! Cigarette burn in the shower curtain. Bad enough their shower curtains look like they got a good deal on 600 million extra yards of circus tent material. Holes in them creep me out.
