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.

Similiar, Sort of.The Radisson Edwardian in Heathrow did exactly the same to a bunch of convention attendees.
For breakfast they set up trestle tables by the swimming pool. Personally I find the stench of chlorine really aids the appetite.
Later on I tried treating myself to a meal int their restaurant and it took ten minutes of arguing before I finally managed to convince them that, yes, I could afford to eat there and knew how to use cutlery.
And the bastards had gone round every single con-goers room and removed the kettles. And somebody else had gone round all the bars, crossed out the booze prices and wrote in new ones (Usually about £2 more expensive.)
£75 a night to be treated like shit. Thanks a bunch. May your kidneys fall out through your arseholes.
