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?

just remembered this one
about 5 years ago, went to spain with the folks. the hotel was nice, if a bit old.
then it rained. a lot.
now, i know the hotel can't be blamed for the rain, but they forgot to mention that every time it rained, the hotel got several thousand extra guests: cockroaches. massive, massive cockroaches. within 2 minutes of the first raindrop falling, the whole place was infested. you didn't dare put a drink down, it'd be full of drowning cockies within seconds.
the english guests were, of course, disgusted by this. the french guests, however, would pick them up and stroke them as if they were cute little kittens. dirty buggers.
length? longer than your thumb.
