I'm guessing there isn't a hotel room out there that hasn't had some sex in it.

rip off the sheet cover and the blanket and only use the sheets even if they have duvet covers and comforters.

They Bleach the crap out of the sheets though they change the pillow covers but are the pillows themselves washed?



I Always wonder how people can buy used beds

Sheets are boiled clean so I don't care.

It's like drinking processed water from human waste. Chemically it's H20. You wouldn't know the difference and you've drunk tons of that throughout your life.

It only bothers me that I wasn't there to listen to it through the walls and masturbate.

Really dude? C'mon.

The ONLY time that shit ever happens is at 2am while you're on a business trip and have to be up at 6am the next morning. It's never at a convenient time.

Topic needs changed to "Does it bother you to think about someone from anandtech having sex in the same bed as you as you are trying to sleep..."

It bothers me more that someone is likely to have died in the room due to natural, or worse unnatural, causes in the hotel room I might be sleeping in, and I definitely feel it more so in an older hotel/motel.

You would also likely be amazed at how many fatal bathroom accidents might have occurred in it, just to scratch the surface.

Speaking of deaths I recall a story where someone somehow managed to get into a water tank and died in it, and that tank was feeding the whole hotel. No idea why they had their own water and not use city water or why that tank was accessible, but yeah the water started to come out a weird colour while people were taking showers and it turned out it was because of the body.

Now think, they probably did not flush all the pipes with anything, they probably just removed the body and emptied and refilled the tank. Yum.

So long as the sheets have been through the washer why the fuck should I care? I'm infinitely more worried about bed bugs, and after a 30 second search of the bed I stop worrying about bed bugs. :p

People getting all tense over crap like this is how you know the developed world has run out of real problems.

If it is like NYC, most, if not all, tall buildings have water tank(s) on the roof. Filled with city water.

Pretty sure it was in LA. The chick was from Vancouver so it was a big story up here. Nasty!
