(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

Perhaps A Conditioner Fixation?
At a Radisson Blu in Denmark where housekeeping had the standard 1 shampoo, 1 conditioner, 1 lotion, 1 shower gel at check-in. The next day they were replaced by 1 lotion, 1 conditioner and 2 shower gels. Day Three? Conditioner. Lots of conditioner.
Flies
In nearly two decades of intense business travel, I don't honestly remember ever having a fly in my room. There are a dozen tonight. The Holiday Inn in Alexandria, Minnesota.

Bridezilla
Greenville/Hyatt. 2010. This is the woman whose wedding shut down my hotel tonight. Her photo was posted prominently in several locations. Several of us non-attendees were trying to find words to describe the pic. "Controlling." "Emasculator." "She Who Wears The...
