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?

Guns n Wankers
Stayed in hostel in suburbs of New Orleans.
At check in the guy said "When you go out, head South - it is safe - but don't go North - it is dangerous"
Sure enough the sound of nearby gunfire soon split the air from the North. Slightly disconcerting but not as downright ugly as waking up the next morning to the unmistakeable fwapp-wank noises from the bloke in the other bunk.
Bright spot was the 24-hour bar round the corner to escape such madness.
