Hotel worker reveals horrifying reason guests should flush the toilet before using it

Make these mistakes and watch as your much-anticipated vacation circles the drain.

Hotel workers have revealed to eShores travel agency why you should flush your toilet as soon as you enter your hotel room — and other tips for a disaster-free stay.

The employees, all of whom wish to remain anonymous, mentioned hotels in warmer climates tend to have insects, such as spiders, resting inside the toilet bowl and underneath the seat.

To avoid a bug crawling up your woo-hah, flush before and after using the loo, they recommended.

Another tip hotel staffers shared is to stay away from the complimentary coffee pots — because you can only imagine what atrocity lurks inside the metal tin. A staffer revealed that the kettle is often skipped during cleaning, so it’s best to abstain from coffee.

Even glassware and coffee cups don’t receive proper cleaning. Workers said that housekeeping rinses the cups and wipes them dry with an old rag they used to clean other surfaces of the room.

But it only gets worse: one employee disclosed a horrifying incident in which a hotel guest urinated in a minibar bottle and replaced the cap. The guests who stayed in the room next almost guzzled down the contaminated drink until they noticed the stench.

Staffers encourage guests before consuming minibar beverages or snacks to ensure the seal is not broken because you never know what mischievous guests could do.

Although the hotel’s breakfast buffet is convenient and sometimes included in your stay, this is another service that workers suggest visitors opt out of, especially if you’re vegetarian.

Hotel kitchens practice cross-contamination by cooking vegetables on meat-greased pots and pans. Also, serving utensils tend to get mixed around with different dishes which means vegetarian guests are consuming meat.

Tara Bee, a housekeeper who goes by @_sourqueen on TikTok, exposed that the one thing you should immediately remove off your bed is your bedspread.

“Take that s- -t off of that bed the minute you walk in there and do not put it back on the bed. They are so filthy,” she declared. “They only get washed once a year, if that, unless there is a visible stain on them.

“So unless someone has bled, puked, pissed, s- -t on them, they do not get washed for an entire year.”

She admitted everything is not what it seems when you stay at a hotel.

“Hate to break it to you — things aren’t as clean as you think that they are,” she said. “Not all hotels are disgusting — it’s usually not the maids going out of their way to make the hotels disgusting. We’re just doing as we were trained to do and told to do.”
