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.

Mickey Discount
I stayed in a hotel in New Orleans. It was an old building. Whilst trying to sleep I heard a tiny noise, a kind of scrabbling. Damn, I think, those are some big roaches. I turned on the light, but alas they were not roaches. They were mice, three of them, and the little bastards were eating my pretzals. Luckily I had my digital camera and took a picture. When I left, I showed the photos of the three mice at the front desk. Oh, they say, how about a Mickey discount? It makes me wonder how many times that had happened before.
