Apparently, you don’t should be an Olympian to be cursed with an anti-sex bed: A Scottish soccer fan who had reserved a hotel on Booking.com was horrified after discovering that the mattresses were product of cardboard, as detailed in a thread on X.
“Wait till you see absolutely the shambles of a situation @bookingcom put us in last night,” user RoryB96 said while describing the digs, which they’d booked over the weekend while watching Scotland play on the UEFA European Championship in Germany.
The Post reached out to Booking.com for comment.
They turned up to search out that the place was an “absolute mess.”
“One in every of the beds was made out of cardboard and likewise held together by duct tape,” Rory described. “The 2nd bed was a settee bed that was broken and disgusting.”
Accompanying photos show the aforementioned slumber pads, which evoked something out of a tent city.
Hoping to rectify the hell digs, the soccer fanatics reportedly phoned Booking.com, and spent three hours attempting to land a latest hotel, per a follow-up X post.
After chatting with three different advisors, Rory said that the reservation firm finally agreed to foot the bill for a latest rental, which they checked into at well after midnight.
Unfortunately, it was out of the frying pan and into the fireplace for the crew, who ended up in a “dungeon” with “hospital beds and industrial equipment lying around the doorway,” as seen within the spine-tingling clip seemingly ripped from a found footage horror film.
The brand new digs, which Rory surmised was an “abandoned medical facility,” was chockablock with “industrial equipment, exposed chemicals, exposed cables and exposed pipes and to top all of it off an axe that looked like something out of a murder film,” per an update.
If that wasn’t freaky enough, the front door didn’t lock.
“The entire place had the vibes of a human trafficking horror film,” said Rory, who decided there was no way they were sleeping there and tried to book latest digs through Booking.com.
Unfortunately, this time around, the corporate reps told the Scots that they’d should “pay for a latest place and invoice them” — a move that he said would’ve totally torpedoed the group’s funds.
“We have now spent over £2000 on accommodation through them for this trip and now they expect us to pay more and wait for a refund once we don’t have the cash to pay now,” lamented Rory. “We left the apartment and booked a hotel for one night (which is on @bookingcom by the way in which) but we are able to now not afford to remain here without help from @bookingcom.”
In a final update posted yesterday, Rory said his gang had managed to book a spot for several days sans the assistance of the booking site.
The vacationer didn’t specify the locations of either of the hell digs.
