All I can say is, I'm never using one of those cups again!

I saw this on Nightline or one of those shows - Yuck.

I would suggest to anyone who has to stay at a hotel/motel buy a little bottle of bleach and some paper towels.

Just stick with hygienic beer. Mmmmmmmmmmm beer.

Most of the hotels I stay in provide plastic or foam cups sealed in a plastic wrapper. I guess it's good thing.

Another hint wrap the remote in the plastic garbage bag.

Very interesting. Now that I think about it, I have never seen clean glasses on their cart. This is probably how they all do it.

Damn --I've stayed at two of those hotels!

At first, I thought it was just that they were using the sink in the hotel room; no big deal.

But using a towel from the floor that somone used to dry their ass, that is just amazing.

Notice how managers all claim it was "just that one incident." That's an amazing coincidence, several hotels each having a single incident caught by the I-team. Wow, any math wizards want to to take a crack at those odds.

I thought the hotel where the maid washed out the toilet and then washed the glasses wearing the same glove was a particularly nice touch. Perhaps they could turn down your be and leave a nice used tissue paper on your pillow, as well.

Of course, those housekeepers who are clearly just following protocol have probably all been fired --which seems a bit unfair.

How do you know that the person who put the plastic cup in the wrapper had clean hands?

That sounds almost as bad as rented scuba gear.

I don't I guess. But, they are one time use so you are relying on the person at the factory not the hotel. They are probably machine packed anyway.
