Your vacation request was finally approved. You’ve booked your trip. Your bags are packed. You are ready to relax and unwind in your cozy hotel. You are on vacation. It’s the dream. Then reality hits you like a ton of bricks or a shower head that’s too low or a beam in the middle of your room, or you know, a ceiling…
Check out the 7 biggest Hotel Fails of All Time:
Hotel Fail #1
After a lengthy but joyous day of sightseeing, your muscles are tired, but you’re content. You’re ready to climb into a comfy bed and rest and rejuvenate for the next day of fun.

Tossing and turning for over an hour, you can’t take it anymore. You finally drag yourself out of bed and pull back the covers to inspect the mattress.

Hotel Fail #5
Opening the door to your hotel room, you finally start to unwind. You enter the room and are disappointed to see that a huge metal beam is right next to the bed. That’s dangerous, you think.

Hotel Fail #6
The day is finally here. It’s your sister’s wedding and you can’t wait to be the maid of honor. It’s time to get ready for this joyous day. You get in the shower and realize that actually washing your hair is going to require immense acrobatic, squatting capabilities.
