What do you love the most about a hotel?
When I was young, usually I love the notepads and pencils given complimentary. Just love it, don't know why. And also the swimming pool.
Nowadays, more towards the toilet. Because the toilet and shower in hotel is soooo gooood. Hahah. And also the swimming pool XD
Currently, I'm in a hotel and the toilet sucks here. But the swimming pool is great! It's the kind that have view of the city straight from rooftop (called infinity pool). Hihi.
When I was younger, my sister and I loved exploring the hotel. Some hotels had game rooms, gyms, conference centers, or pools to be explored. Now, I'm more excited just to see the technology the hotel has. Some hotels are super up to date and others are kind of dated with their technology.
I'm enjoying the reasons why you enjoy the hotel now, lol.
Wow, technology? I rarely goes to that kind of hotel. The best tech I've ever seen in a hotel is just the requirement of your card to choose your floor level in the elevator. Lmao.
Okay, to be fair I have YET to see that kind of technology in a hotel LOL. I mostly look at like the TV or how to get in the room or the telephones. I haven't been to a hotel that had anything super fancy.
Am an hotel virgin, the last time I've actually slept inside one was 16 years ago!!!!!!!!! As a kiddo, there were indeed some very good perks of it --- my parents've had a "OK you're allowed to mess it all this time!!!" attitude which was nice, there was an hypnotizing chandelier... and, also, the super obvious parts, such as "how cool it is that any bedroom that doesn't belong to us smells differently", and so on
I love that "hypnotizing chandelier". The only place I can see those stuff other than the lighting shop XD lmao
I love exploring the room! Seeing what's in all of the drawers, what complimentary things they give you and what you can buy from room service. And the stuff that we don't have at home, like a pool and a balcony, and fancy furniture lol
CComplimentary things are the best! I've just checked out of hotel, we brought all the complimentary foods and drinks out too and took back with us for our journey back home. Lmao.Quote:

I loved hotels until I lived in an apartment in a Intercontinental for 2 years, it used to be exciting to go to hotels, now I just use Airbnb
also the bed and the front door so i can get out as quickly as possible and explore
i have like zero interest in hotels. "oh its nice" then put case down, brush teeth and get out! and not remember coming back cos pissed
The hotels you chose to stay are weirds XD I thought that tube man only goes to car or furniture dealer shop. Lmao.Quote:

I go to see straight away the goodies they have next to the kettle, there is always biscuits and whatnot.
I had my first airbnb experience a few weeks ago, wasn't that great - it was like someone's house who was away for a while so they had their own possessions about as much as they tried to hide it..Quote:

being able to make yourself hella cups of tea and put on the heating and shower without worrying about the expense
airbnb has became more businessy now, i try avoid 'homey' houses, but I'm not trying to stay at more hotels.Quote:

I usually only ever stay in a hotel room with my sister though which isn't the best so generally I'd say currently i don't really like hotels
No prices have rose, I wanted to buy a flat complex (in a super old rustic area), but it's nearly doubled in price. It needed work, but I had some plans on how to move it forward. But I don't have 750k+ to buy it, let alone to fix it up, we're renting right now, but I kind of want to go somewhere else, maybe Canary Islands but I've barely had time to look, I've just took on some huge products.Quote:
