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

All In All, It’s Another Hole In The Wall

From a vacationer in Alaska who complained to the front desk because the room was too hot and the AC wasn't working. He left, came back and the air conditioning was on and a Winter's-worth of built up dust had blown all over the room.
Coming Soon To Guantanamo
I imagine who was ever strapped down to this ironing board and tortured, spilled his guts and ratted out everyone he's ever met: Months ago when I was asked to emcee the film festival in Sutter Creek. I decided to book a room so I would not have to drive back to...
Shower Blood
Just enough to get a DNA match to link the previous guest to a string of homicides in Utah
An OCD Panic Attack Waiting To Happen
If you have issues with, well, order and symmetry, this Holiday Inn in Oregon would put you on a ledge.
