Weird Hotel Rooms

This hideous hotel bathroom tub features a two-side tub with a deep end and a shallow end. It’s also tiled with some of the most horrifying green tiles we’ve ever laid eyes on. It’s one of the weirdest hotel rooms we’ve seen.

This fancy hotel has a shallow tub with two sides. When the button is pressed, one side lights up with a red light and hot water for about 30 seconds. Then the other side lights up with blue light and cold water and shuts off after the same amount of time. from whatisthisthing

If you squint you can almost see what’s on the TV from your bed. Love it when they go cheap on the hotel tech. Kind of looks like someone tossed a computer monitor on the wall.

How’s this tv in my hotel. Me: 🔭 👁 from pics

In case you need to go full Shining mode on your bathroom, you’ve got your very own hatchet.

The hotel I’m staying at has a hatchet above the toilet from mildlyinteresting

This door is so bizarre. Must be some sort of old home that turned into a bed and breakfast.

We still hate these, right? God, they are so terrible. And it’s not even just the fact it’s a shared dispenser (which is bad enough), but this specific design is so annoying. Squeeze. Plop. Squeeze. Plop. Sigh.

Hey, it’s a makeup shelf, right? Right?

They put shelving directly above the sink faucet in my hotel room from CrappyDesign

A tight fit. Oof. It’s kind of impressive, really.

Uh, the secret racist hotel? That’s creepy. What in the holy heck!?

My brother *was* going to stay at this hotel in Ephrata, WA for the Tame Impala concert tonight, until he saw the wifi password they gave him. Hopefully this is an appropriate post, I feel very strongly that this needs to be seen by more people from Seattle

If we saw this hotel we’d think it had been used or something. It’s kind of weird, tbh. Also, probably brilliant.

Mildly creepy. But it’s not just the swinging bed, it’s the entire decor of the room. Also, I like how they said, “yeah, let’s just leave the headboard.”

Hey, at least they are having fun with it, right? You know you are gonna steal it too.

Sure, let’s do a robot in your hotel room. Trust us, though, it can’t be hacked. Oh, wait…

Uh, we are confused. What is this for? Also, tbh, it doesn’t look very sanitary.

I found this in the hotel bathroom and got so excited and took a pic and now my sister think I’m crazy or in a weird cult but it was worth it 😂🙏🏼 from YoTroublemakers

They do some weird stuff in Germany…just saying. But this hotel closet is wacko (see what I did there). And dangerous.

I am so confused by these elevator instructors. What do I do?? What do I do!?!?!

Here’s another poorly designed hotel elevator. Or maybe a poorly designed hotel!

Mold. Let’s do some mold, right? Easy enough. Just let the shower flood your bathroom 365 nights a year. Perfect.

Squeeze another bed in there, bro. It’s fine. Plenty of room.

I work at a hotel as a housekeeping manager. These HVACs are about 6 inches away from the bed. Imagine trying to make the bed. from CrappyDesign
