Being a Hotel Manager this is so accurate and good luck phoning through to reception because we may or may not answer the phone!

[@Rafa-mc5sw]

Funny..

[@AleksanderDrako]

Ah, nothing like being dragged from hotel to restaurant sector because the help is needed in banquet hall. What? Someone needs to be in reception room? Nah, restaurant is exactly looking at it through the open door. The overworked waiter will handle you, just asked then, and if not? Well, then there is two people looking for help.

[@lorelenefreeman7406]

You forgot the curtains that don’t quite shut all the way, so there’s a sliver of light that keeps you awake all night.

[@comealongcomealong4480]

@Lorelene Could be a worldwide problem. I remember one of those "What does the actress/model pack when she travels?" article from years ago. It was bulldog-clips or pegs they took, so you could darken the room as much as possible (and sleep!). Good tip that I've followed at times 👏

[@gorillaau]

The curtains may shut all the way but expose the edge of thw window. Oh, and put a security flood light outside the room for safety. This will turn you room into a mini land of the midnught sun, but think safety.

You want something nice Jason? Fine, give em a King sized bed! Except it's two single beds strapped together so you can't sleep in the middle because it's too uncomfortable so you'll sleep on one side like it's a single bed anyway.

Absolutely! Just stayed at a flash hotel in Sydney CBD & the exhaust fan would just launch randomly, even if pulled the card out of the wall socket thingo

Most of them don't work for the hotel, they work for shitlord slave labour contract companies they make them work at a speed good work and fine detail is forgotten.

[@phydeux]

You forgot the drapes! Big heavy sackcloth drapes that let no light through, but are set several centimeters away from the wall so all the light seeps around them! And laundry service so expensive it's cheaper to just buy new clothes. An ice bucket so small you can get enough for two glasses of water before having to make a second trip.... which you won't.... because the machine's always broken. A swimming pool that's best day was the day the pamphlet photos were taken and hasn't been maintained since, and the only people who've ever swam in it are the employees. Towels so small and thin you need one for every hundred pounds of bodyweight, plus two for the floor because couldn't tell the floor mat wasn't a towel and used it to dry off already.

[@Lana-Moran]

100% correct.

[@stephaniecole4609]

The bath/shower tap arrangements are so true. You need a degree to work out how to work them. When you need glasses to see them but have to take the glasses off for the shower, it's an absolute pain. The lack of jugs is a real pain overseas as you have to run the hot water through a pod machine and end up with coffee flavoured tea etc. My other pet peeve is dark rooms (supposedly moody) where you're stumbling in tbe dark trying to find light switches, coupled with corridor mood lighting on power save. There's 1 Canberra hotel which is horrible for this.

[@gglydie4242]

I think I know the Canberra hotel you are talking about 😄 I would never have thought of black to cover the floor walls and ceiling until I had stumbled through it myself!

[@Lana-Moran]

I’ve spent many years as a young child and teenager exploring the country side of Australia. So a couple of tips for y’all: 1. Bring your own pillow 2. Wear shoes in the shower if the place is really old or ever lol 😂 3. Honestly go down to the shops and buy some toilet paper. 4. Don’t like Lipton tea? Bring your own. 5. Don’t sleep on the decorative pillows or blankets. If you’ve got a suggest just comment it and I’ll add it to the list.

[@rosie-777]

OMG the ironing board and the sheets got me😂 so accurate😅

[@SimLauren]

There’s also the room with 3 beds, 2 chairs and 1 coat hook.

[@donnajohansson4105]

I think we have stayed in that room!😂😂😂

[@mahadewiiii]

Or the heater/air conditioner that is impossible to adjust so you are either boiling hot or freezing cold all night 🤪 And the bright digital alarm clock set to the wrong time that you have to unplug so you can sleep. Also, housekeeping barging after briefly knocking and not waiting for a reply (Happened to my husband and I on 3 separate occasions when we were dating in a long distance relationship and stayed in hotels often) 🙈 And the sheets with the scratchy wooden blanket (that I guess is not washed after each guest) in between are horrible. I get why they do it, but it’s not comfortable and the blanket is 😬 And unless you are staying in a fancy 5 star hotel,if you are starving after 9 or 10pm there’s no food available, not even in the mini bar and if you are lucky to have room service the choice is between an overpriced microwaved food 😆 And I always have trouble with having to tap the room card on the lift/elevator swiper so it will go up to your room, I can never figure out if you do it before or after pressing your floor number, so I just give up and let my husband do it 🤪 I think I may just need to stay in some posher hotels 😆

[@TC-yx2ss]

On top of the shower bath you get a $10 shower curtain and a handbasin tap that drips all night.Then at 7am the gardener with the leaf blower doing the pool surround outside your room all for a measly $480 a night.Thank you Sails.

[@lex23anton75]

No mention of the "in-house wildlife" 🤣...ants, crickets, cockroaches, mice, silverfish etc etc🤣🤣🤣

You forgot the air-conditioning that spills dust everywhere because the aircon filter hasn't been cleaned in 10 years.

[@benmmm7359]

💯!!

[@Alice-ui9oy]

The late check-in is the WORST when you get to a city after an overnight flight and find yourself just riding public transport around the city to pass the time. Or if a library is open nearby that's always appreciated as long as they don't kick you out for falling asleep on the couches 😐

[@choppersworld5094]

check your bags in early to the hotel early and go in search of the local i site and get vouchers from a free tourist information book then go on a self-guided tour. also complaining you're tired and you're going to just set up camp in their lobby until the room is ready and making it look like you're in no rush to move by keeping your self busy, gets things moving fast.

[@Meriphistimo]

Being a business traveller, but thankfully not recently, every last bit of this is true. My personal pet peeve is no power points (not just difficult to get at) next to the bed to charge my phone and have it anywhere near me. The usual victim for unplugging is the alarm clock that is too difficult to set, and my phone does that for me anyway.except it would be on the other side of the room. I pity the poor staff forced to reset the thing once I plug it back on again and can't figure out how to reset the time. Or perhaps the next guest who thinks whatever the clock says the time is is correct...

[@lozzieelizadesigns05]

One vivid Sydney I was staying near the harbour with family and I got a cold so I didn’t notice we had the heater on and I turned on the kettle for a tea to warm me up and the jug tripped the power of the room. I didn’t know where the powerbox was to turn it back on so I put blankets around me waiting for my family to get back from vivid cold ahaha. Next morning I noticed it above the kitchen area in a cupboard ahaha

[@Meriphistimo]

...I imagine the better hotels have in-house self-improvement clock resetting courses the room staff can go on to move up from sheet-tightener to a Cert IV master clock setter...

[@AnthonyDavid59]

My business travel experience to a tee. I did discover one hotel with some but not all of this insanity in Melbourne.

[@kayelle8005]

I once made the mistake of relying on the clock (pre mobile phone says) and ended up leaving at 2:30am in the morning instead of 5:30am 😫

forgot the mirror in the bathroom that get so covered in condensation and then takes 2 hours to get clear enough to use it to shave regardless of how many times you wipe it with the scratchy towels.

[@gerardbryant4840]

And make sure the TV can be heard at least 3 rooms away.

[@DarkMatterZine]

You forgot pre-booking and pre-paying then, if you’re disabled (like me) and on your own for the trip, they refuse to let you check in and refuse a refund. (It was nearly 8pm in Melbourne so I just sat on the curb and cried. Total strangers started abusing hotel staff so they let me check in. Love the kindness of random strangers.)

[@DarkMatterZine]

not abusing, not really, but they told off hotel staff.

[@Ailieorz]

The power thing is even more stupid when they give you two keycards, so you just leave it on the whole time anyway

[@StephBer1]

Totally perfect but you forgot the part where it takes 10 minutes for the hot water to come on. I was at a very nice "australiana" motel out west once and for "authenticity" the pillow slips on the bed were made to resemble hessian bags! You had to take them off to get to the real pillow and pillow slip underneath. It smelt like hessian all night. Otherwise a nice place.

[@carlkenner4581]

Most of those affected in Texas are immigrants from countries with strict gun laws (such as Mexico), who chose to move to the USA because it is a freeer safer country than where they came from.

[@whomdoyouserve3611]

So no government will ever treat me like a dog... and never step their boundaries.. Tyranny is upon us.. and you better have the means to protect yourself..

[@kimhuett2119]

And then there is the $25 breakfast buffet which actually costs the hotel less than $10.

[@SimLauren]

In the UK, this is the same eggs, beans, tomatoes, sausage, bacon & rosti offering, no matter how posh the hotel is and how much they up-charged you…

[@kimhuett2119]

Much the same in Australia but without the beans and with you choice of six different types of toast, three types of juice, and of course espresso coffee.

[@mahadewiiii]

$25 would be a cheap buffet breakfast… they’re so expensive. Which reminds me… last time we stayed in a hotel we paid for the buffet breakfast, but had such a bad night’s sleep, we woke up too late for the breakfast as it finished at 9am 🙈🙈🙈

Room service will replace all but the very thing, I am talking about you coffee capsule, you need. There will be nowhere to hang more than one towel. The air conditioner will make the most uncouth sounds imaginable with a delightful crescendo just as you WERE falling asleep. The people next door will have noisy children, the tv turned up full tilt, will be having loud sex and or equally loud arguments. And, as a long term Chinese resident, the non smoking room will wreak of smoke 💨, stale tobacco. I am just warning up 🙄😑
