(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

You Just Kind Of Need To Tilt Your Head
An attendee of the NAB Radio Show in Austin noted that the street/river scene artwork in his room was hung sideways.
Brown + Bed Cover = Nightmare
Some kind of brown splatter at a La Quinta, submitted by an airline employee between flights.
A Hotel Ho
From a flight attendant on layover.
Sheet Snot
From Flight Attendant X. Snot on the sheets at the Holiday Inn/Historic District in Philadelphia. But it was a Trifecta: urine stained mattress and hair on the pillow case.
Snot Spot
This is what I get for giving up after two hours of waiting in the lobby and asking for "A room. ANY room." This would be a pencil eraser sized blob of snot on the wall. Somewhere on International Drive, Orlando, July 2011.
Hair
So my client asked me this morning, "How's the hotel? Not going to show up on that Facebook thing you do, is it?" I said no, that it's great and moderately swanky. I just moved my pillow and the bed spread is covered with 1-2 inch semi curly dark head hair. Not mine....
