Perhaps this is not true about really fancy places, but if you are looking for a blog about a really fancy hotel, then you best look elsewhere. This list is about hotels that are not the Ritz, but nicer than Motel 6.

Things about Hotels that always bother me:

- Please don’t fold my TP roll nicely, with a little triangular pull on the end. I always feel like I have to put it back nicely and I cannot make it look quite as lovely. So from the first wipe post-fold, the TP looks all messed up to me. This is a downer.

- Fabric softener would be just swell. I mean, I know it is an added cost, but you keep throwing away my perfectly good once-used bar of soap. Let me have one bar of soap the entire stay, and splash some Downy on those sandpaperesque towels.

- Quit saying my name when I call the front desk! I mean, I know you can see it on the computer and all, but it is freaking me out! Leave a little mystery in the world, will ya?

- Change the sign on the door. It always says the price of a room that is about five times higher than what you are charging me. If this is to make me feel like I am getting a deal, it’s not working. It makes me feel like everything else here is going to be inaccurate too.

- Why is the remote control in the fitness room always lost? Can’t you put it on an elastic cord or something? The channel is always stuck on some sports station. Sheesh!

Thanks hotel. You really are kind for putting up with my antics. Like how I always put my shoes approximately three centimeters from the edge on the top of my zipped suitcase. That way if they are four or five centimeters from the edge, I will know you peeked at my underwear. It is good of you to let the paranoid stay too.
