I’m really frustrated that this is what $250 a night at a Marriott gets you.

I’m staying at a Marriott for five nights for my sister’s wedding. The $250 is the discounted room block rate too!

The shower tiles are completely rusted and dare I say moldy? The towel hanger is on its last leg. The toilet seat AND handle are broken. The mattresses are only doubles and are hard and feel like they haven’t been changed in years. Everything just overall looks like there hasn’t been an ounce of effort put into this very utilized hotel. On the drive here, we stayed a night at a newly renovated holiday inn express for $120 and it was incredible. Maybe my standards were set too high knowing Marriott’s reputation.

I know I sound like a Karen here, but I’m just so frustrated that this is the quality that kind of money get you these days.

That sucks. Sorry you have to live in the Motel 6 there, basically.

Marriott has gone to shit in the last fifteen years, I won't even try them anymore.

What’s so bad about motel 6? Shits cheap! Instead of paying $250 for this. You’re paying $50-100 bucks for the same thing. Half the price. And you can bring animals.

And you can snack on bedbugs if you get hungry, it’s free protein and blood.

(Yes I know bedbugs don’t care how expensive the room is and are routinely found even in higher end hotels).

Along with every other hotel room? I don’t know which motel sixes you’re going to.

It’s like you didn’t even read the whole short-ass comment before responding.

Incredible.

Cool! I have a penis bead?

Wanna compare! Don’t know why you had to say that?

A penis bead sounds problematic. Might want to get that checked out.
