Good and bad things about hotels

Jump to newest

i travel all over

I was thinking : what makes me like a hotel and want to go back ?

And what puts me off?

Things I like

Interconnecting and group rooms

Free coffee refills

Hot chocolate sachets in the rooms

Hotels where you can go to straight to the rooms from the car park

Day use options

And things I don’t like

Key cards to use lifts

Staff with intrusive questions like why has a single male booked a family room ?

A lack of a cafe/restaurant

A total lack of value for money especially doubling the room price at weekends

What are your likes and dislikes ?

FoxTown

Decent water pressure and bathroom, staff who are discreet none of their business what I'm doing in the hotel I have paid for the use of it.

Hate that no discount on room if staying on your own.

Room service is usually crap

Love a nice hotel where can chill out and relax

Check out before 12 bugs me

Why do they have to be so hot, it’s like staying inside a volcano, stayed in the new maldron in Cork and they had air con in the room some job.

The showers are great but don’t like when it’s over a bath, have a separate shower tray.

somewhere

Love a large shower on its own with enough room for 2

Hate the way single people get the room over the pub or air con units ....always ask to be moved

Love being away from the madness of my house even for a night

Lately love having someone beside me all night

Staff with intrusive questions like why has a single male booked a family room.... they will always say that! Know that for a fact!

Refills for coffee, tea and other items I really like also a big shower.

One good idea you said is lifts from the carpark to your room would really like that but hotel that have that will always use a key card system for security

I'm not a big fan of hotels in general. They can be useful for meeting alright but staying overnight is normally just a pain: too hot, too noisy, the bedding is uncomfortable and all those other people....

This just boiled up my city west experience, the hotel factory, awful place...

Northwich

Large beds and that feel of crisp clean white sheets.

Not having to change those sheets after a lady has soaked them.

The knowing but innocent look on the gorgeous young receptionists face when you check back out again at 11pm

The pure filth that goes on in them is the good.

Only bad is being stood up and no filth to go on in them

Eh, the vast majority are all pretty generic really, and what's with the stuffy air, do they pump it in specially?

By the sea

What i like.

Quick check in. Especially the ones where they have your key card ready and say "welcome back Mr. Cave.

Decent batteries in remote control.

Big bed and spare bed

Good water pressure in a big shower.

Clean crisp linen in beds

Coffee pod machine, I really don't trust kettles.. soo many stories about what goes in them.

What I hate..

Rooms 2 miles from bar.

Poor generic bar food.

No decent chicken on the menu.(its rare i know)

Im easily pleased

Greystones, Galway

Love being in a hotel room with someone nice. Having sexy fun and hearing people in the corridors and knowing that I'm having the fun and they're not!!

Gotta agree on the breakfast, one of the pluses of Covid measures was the breakfast cooked to order

The only thing I really hate in hotels are horrible mattresses and poor hygiene. I can live with anything else .

In saying that the things I love when they are available are showers big enough for a few and jacuzzis or jacuzzi baths
