    What would you do? 💩
    *Update 1:* After contacting Accor's CEO and directors, the hotel's general manager replied and refunded the €51 cleaning fee.
    *Update 2:* Someone tried, unsuccessfully, to get my review taken down from Google Maps maps.app.goo.gl/b8w6YJccYS49mVJZA.

      I would have done the same as you had. You are a gentleman. Unfortunately, some people consider being a gentleman a sign of weakness. Those that make such misjudgements are themselves weak of character, and lacking brain matter.
      Hotel managers usually reside in the hotel, and are available during business hours.
      Having had experience in the Hotel business, yes, this was a retaliation for the reviews that your parents left.

      Last month almost the same thing happened to me in Thailand but mine was about the hair dryer . Upon checking out they told me the hair dryer was missing in the room that I have to pay $80 which we didn’t even knew there was hair dryer inside the room . I didn’t pay them anything I said I will report to the police and they just apologise for misunderstanding. I think a lot of hotel staff or cleaner use this method to scam for their own benefit.

The vast, vast majority of DNA in our poop (greater than 99%) is bacterial, rather than mammalian.

    I booked Hayatt in London. They gave me a disabled room (I did not request it) I'm 6 feet 2 inches in height and wash basin in toilet was at my knee height. There was no barrier between room and toilet. As a result room carpet had water stains on it. When I entered the room! Someone else's name was on the screen. Clearly they gave me someone else's room. I made video of the room when I entered. After checkout i was told that I must pay 400 pounds cleaning charge. Luckily I was still in London. Showed them video of the room with time stamp. Not only got refund for my one night stay but also for 5 night stay voucher. You have to fight with them.

    Watching this, I was actually impressed that the conversation remained so dignified; Karl remained calm and diplomatic throughout and the receptionist was extremely polite and empathetic also. He may have slipped when he said about the “harsh accusation” but he really was put on the spot and (I believe) completely shafted by his cleaning staff. Had he known what was going on I doubt he would have made such an effort to help Karl and made so many phone calls. I’m glad this got resolved and that you got the refund. This young man on reception, who was completely thrown in at the deep end, is probably the only saving grace the hotel has throughout this whole disgusting episode!

    I always take pictures when I leave, hotel or vacation house rental. Sometimes, I'll take a video to show I'm leaving. Also, I don't complain while I'm staying somewhere unless it's something they can fix... no one is going to replace a mattress during your stay unless you want to be changed to a different room. When getting into a hotel room, check it out thoroughly first, then within the 1st 30 minutes, maybe you can ask for a different room. But complaining during your stay often does nothing. There's another scam out there where people rent houses and then complain to get partial refunds on their stays. So also this goes both ways, unfortunately.

My sister went in one of those shops and 2 girls behind her intentionally dropped a souvenir and they started to act like my sister did it. Then, when she wanted to pay, the cashier was charging triple price without explaining nothing, my sister asked why and the cashier said it was because she dropped the souvenir on the floor. Then my sister told him, well, charge me only for the souvenir broken, I wont buy anything from you. She left with a bitter memory of Budapest.

    I've never heard of such a scam, but if it's really a reoccurring thing that they accuse multiple customers of, it's absolutely horrific.
    Lastly, note that you won't find a single spotless mattress in any hotel in the world. Hundreds of people sleep in the same bed every year and mattresses are changed (maybe every 5 years). Please don't rip the sheets of the beds and complain about this to the front desk staff. As long as the top mattress and sheet is clean, then you're gonna be fine. Otherwise don't sleep in hotels.
