This is a question Hotel Splendido

Enzyme writes, "what about awful hotels, B&Bs, or friends' houses where you've had no choice but to stay the night?"

What, the place in Oxford that had the mattresses encased in plastic (crinkly noises all night), the place in Blackpool where the night manager would drum to the music on his ipod on the corridor walls as he did his rounds, or the place in Lancaster where the two single beds(!) collapsed through metal fatigue?

Add your crappy hotel experiences to our list.

Student flat
as part of a house divided up into flats, seemingly with sheets of cardboard. I appreciate this may not be that unusual, but anyway.

As you may have seen coming, the people upstairs had a tendency to play loud dance music at godawful times in the morning. However, this wasn't the end of their twuntiness. To give an example of a typical night:
4:30am: Loud dance music turned on.
4:45am: Having decided they're not going to bed and time soon, I ask them to turn it off. Which, after a bit of whinging, they do.
5:15am: After (correctly) assuming I'm asleep again, they (very incorrectly) seem to think loud music won't wake me up again, and turn it back on.
Grrrrrrrr.

And they did this every. single. fucking. night. Repeatedly forgetting (I give people the benifit of the doubt far too often) that this woke me up every. single. fucking. night.

Truely cunts of the highest order.



Although the happy ending is that they did eventually get evicted, although I suspect it was only when the people next door complained as well that the landlord (one of those that makes sypathetic noises and then does fuck all) felt he had to actually do something.

I get the same thing
every friday night. Its not so bad for me, but for my flat mate who has to be up for work at 6 in the morning, it must be hell.

Now it wouldnt be so bad if she could go to bed early to get the necessary sleep, but from about 7 till 10, their "pre party" causes the whole block to shake (especially with Hamish's new subwoofer), and because the event in question is on campus, they come back drunk at about hourly intervals shouting, screaming and singing very badly.

That was far too long for a mere reply, but you get a click, so accept it.
