Hotel SplendidoEnzyme 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.

Having just started a new jobI was sent to Cornwall for a week. Yay! in November. Boo. The job mainly consisted of standing around in the cold and rain knee deep in muddy/ waste filled trenches on landfill sites melting bits of pipework together to draw gas out of the site. By the end of the day i was filthy and stank.
Sadly the pub I was booked into was having some problems with its heating, so there was no hot water for a bath on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday so it was cold showers to get clean. To make things worse the chimney in the bar was fucked, so every time someone went in or out of the bar the fire belched a cloud of smoke which really spoiled the beer.
By way of inadvertent revenge, by the time we left, the car pack looked more like a corner of the tip due to the amounts of stinking crap that fell off our cars and vans overnight.
Served them right the inbred bastards who were too tight to get a plumber and chimney sweep.
