The public protection member of the local Council has intervened, and the hotel is to refund the money and abandon the policy. Not that this will make any difference to their fate.

I always wonder why people would actually stay the night if they walked into a room like this!

Good grief! Exactly! Why would anyone stay after walking into stuff like that?

With one rotten apple, why would you boycott an entire city?
If there were a similar occurrence in London would you boycott all of London? Or Seattle?
