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.

Flushed out
I understand that the better hotels still provide the little amenities (free soap in the shower, mints on the pillows etc), but Travellodge are trying to do way with them to save money. There's nothing disposable in any of the rooms with the exception of the "tea set" - two teabags, two coffee packets, two decaf coffee packets and the appropriate creamer/sugar stuff.

And so I wasn't expecting very much when I stayed a night there with a friend. But you know Travellodge! They go above and beyond the norm and provide you with some wonderful amenities left behind by previous guests...

...there was an enema kit in the bathroom. Hanging over the shower curtain rail and still attached to the bath tap. Someone had clearly been engaging in a bit of colon hygiene and the travellodge staff had not thought to remove it. And there was even a pack of unopened disposable nozzles by the bath.

Despite large amounts of alcohol and drunken dares, no-one used it. We didn't complain to the management purely because we thought it was hilarious :)

You weren't thinking!
You could have had a beer enema!
