A blogger has exposed 14 5-star Chinese hotels for their grotesque cleaning practice of using the same towel to clean sinks, drinking glasses and toilets, bound to prove unsurprising considering the country’s track record elsewhere.
Uploading 11-minutes of footage onto social media, the hidden cameras unveiled some rather unsanitary cleaning practices performed by the workers of various reputed hotels, such as using the same towel to clean both a toilet and drinking cups or placing a toilet brush in the same basket as a cleaning rag.
Many of the outed hotels had no choice but to deliver shameful apologies to customers, though this hasn’t interfered with Shanghai authorities getting involved in the matter, who (along with the local tourism administration) will now be performing inspections and issuing proper punishments to hotels that aren’t up to code in terms of sanitation.
Note to self, never go to China.
atleast it didnt explode…. yet
Well till now, but who knows what will happen with building construction after few years. Never say never. Maybe evil will conquer itself by bad karma.
Try using a UV/Blacklight on your hotel bed. You’ll be able to see if there are semen stains among other things.
Also, there are plenty of shoddy hotels in virtually every country.
“Also, there are plenty of shoddy hotels in virtually every country.”
What part of 5-star did you not understand? We’re not talking about some Motel 6, we’re talking about the kind of Hotel that you spend more for a three night stay than most people pay for a months rent.
I was speaking in general. There are plenty of shoddy badly run hotels in virtually every country on Earth with a varied range of stars.
True, but the problem here is that before this China’s regulatory bodies apparently never cared enough to investigate, while most other countries actually have things like standards and certification, with mandated inspections and such. Corruption happens anywhere, but in china they didn’t even need to bribe someone to get away with this.
All hotels use pure white bed sheets and towels, because bleach
It’s not the sheets you want to check, it’s the mattress. Although to be fair, having to change the mattress after a guest jerks off in the bed even once seems unreasonable and I’ve never heard a good solution.
And its not like you’re going to lick the mattress or anything. There are layers and layers of fabric between you and the mattress, which presumably do get thoroughly cleaned.
To be fair, if a room is in such a s♥♥t state that the bed is questionable to lay down on. I would look elsewhere in the room too. The bathroom for bacteria from poor cleaning. The walls perhaps for signs of mould.
They make cheap mattress covers.
I thought Chinese people were supposed to be smart. Tiger moms and all that. This is just epic levels of mental retardation.
At least the towels didn’t explode this time.
The hell are you babbling about?

you’re quite new indeed
This is why i never go to china. I feel sorry for other people, my friends, and even some of my relative.
They always look at china through media only, tv, book, newspaper. Where everything over there is just propagandaof how great china is, how beautiful china is, how magnificent they are. They dont know the real face of china and the moment i say something bad about china, these people just start scolding me because iam telling a lie.
Poor…. poor souls, as in my writing now, some of my friends planning to go there and look for a job, they even ready to quit their current just for the sake of “beautiful” china. Propaganda is scary as f♥♥k.
They ain’t your friends no more…
no i’m pretty sure they know that parts of china are lumps of s♥♥t, but its not like they can do much either
“parts”
