Yeah, I saw that a couple of weeks ago. Especially the "cleaning" lady and the hidden camera. Reminds me of what Barbara Ehrenreich had to say about Merry Maids (she worked as one) in her book, "Nickel and Dimed."

Wow. That's just disgusting. I always thought the Holiday Inn changed its glasses to the plastic cups because people were stealing the glass ones. I can't believe the hotel managers refused to discuss the issue. I wonder if a follow up story was done with the Sheraton to see if the county health inspector followed up with the leads.
I'm surprised I never got anything serious from them.

See? That's why when we travel we tow our pop-up! Everything is OURS and we know if it's dirty or clean! :-) We even brought our pop-up to Disney! It's great to tow your own hotel room with you!

I remember using pop-up cups. I won one once for selling a certain amount of boy scout popcorn.

I had one of those too, swimmy.
Have you ever seen what happens when you spray Luminol around a hotel room and then turn on the UV lights? Not a pretty picture.

I had a collapsible cup when I was in girl scouts. And a mess kit. And a jackknife.
