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.

Hotels in ScotlandTo carry on a theme.
Arrived late in Pitlochry to find my Expedia booked pre-paid hotel was 'full because we often overbook, like every hotel'. That was a first for me..
So I was kindly sent in the direction of another hotel. I arrived noticing the rate card maximum of £50 (a little bit less than the £85 I had paid) and when someone finally turned up at reception I was told that the good rooms had gone...
She was not wrong. Nylon sheets, a certain dampness in the air and no curtains. Lovely.
To top off the stay I went downstairs to the bar where I was asked if I wanted to eat in the hotel the following evening and if so I had to tell them what I wanted to eat there and then. I guess when you drink as much as the guys in the bar seemed to have done by 6pm then all food tastes the same. Me I like to think about what I am going to eat a little closer to the time I eat it.
Scotland Welcomes You is I believe their latest nonsense.
Length - If outside the grounds of Edinburgh Airport then too far
