22 Dark Secrets From Everyday Hotels
But you never know what. And maybe it's better that way. Ignorance is bliss.
But, for the morbidly who are a-okay with never getting a good night's sleep in a hotel again, here's an assortment of hotel secrets and utter horror stories from insiders are the world's most glorified public bathrooms. Whether it's the sheer amount of human feces that have permeated those lovely sheets you're snuggling up in or true backstory of that chocolate fountain you're so excited about, prepare yourself. It's gonna get messy.
1.
People will flush anything down a toilet. Towels, sheets, giant shits that no human could have possibly downloaded, pillows, paper, food, bottles, and just about everything else.
3.
I’ve had to deal with people throwing the furniture off balconies and throw on to other guests cars.
4.
Well we had SIGHs. Self Inflicted Gunshot Wound to the Head. How often did this happen? Well we had an abbreviation for it, how often do you think.
6.
Checking in late at night sometimes means free upgrades or discounted upgrade rates. We would try to sell every last suite at night for almost 80% off.
7.
also, people are so rude regularly to hotel staff that if you’re just genuinely nice you can get pretty much anything you want.
8.
I worked as a housekeeper, and we were told not to change pillow cases unless they looked dirty considering they didn’t want to do that much laundry everyday.
10.
I worked at a 5 star hotel in England as a bartender. Hosted events and stuff. One thing that was common was my manager would just spam extra drinks onto the bill at events to make more money.
11.
housekeeping gets the brunt of it. i’ve seen them carry out bags of used sex toys, peel used condoms off of every surface, and scrub shit – actual human (presumably) shit – off places there’s no reason for human shit to be. the worst, though, was the couple that wanted a home birth but not, you know, at home (because gross). We had to deal with that hazmat situation.
12.
NEVER EVER EVER (I REPEAT!!) USE A CHOCOLATE FOUNTAIN FROM A HOTEL OR BANQUET HALL!!! that chocolate gets strained and saved for the next weeks brunch. Chocolate is waaay too expensive to throw away.
13.
As part of our training as bellman we are to ask open ended questions to the children to make sure they aren’t being used for sex trafficking when bringing in luggage to “Dad and daughter” types.
14.
A lot of lonely people going on vacation to end their life. Happens a lot but is never mentioned on the news.
15.
Never trust glass in room. GRAs are so stretched thin on time that they will clean the glasses with the same rags they clean the bathroom, after all their goal is to make the room look clean.
16.
We had a guest break their wine glass inside a water refill barrel … I left work for two weeks to go on vacation and when I came back, all the glass was still piled inside the water refill barrel. People must have been drinking out of it because there were events booked while I was gone
17.
Dead people. In some places there’s a reasonable chance somebody has died in your bed…One place I worked maybe 40% of the beds had been died in.
20.
The baby changing station in the mens room is just the coke table for all the servers. Physical lines in it from use over the years.
21.
Here’s one taken from the opposite end. I’m really bad at rolling joints. I left the shitty joint with my stash and papers on the dresser. I come back to a nicely rolled joint. I don’t know if any was missing. But thank you Hard Rock LV staff.
