Was I Being a Karen?
I checked into a hotel a few days ago (leaving out name for obvious reasons) this was not a cheap hotel stay its over 250 a night. As I do whenever I get into a hotel I pulled back the sheets to check for any surprises, and unfortunately I found faint but noticeable stains in a few places plus some random strands of hair.
I went to the front desk and had to return 3 times before someone actually swapped the sheets. Even worse was the lady at the front desk was straight up gaslighting me saying someone was in there 35 min ago and changed them, I told her I was just in there for the past 3 hours snoozing on the couch because after only having slept 1 hour the night before due to my flight I was desperate, and noone came to change them. To which she snapped that the "big boss" was going to take a look.
The question is are these faint stains normal for hotels? I guess they can't get them out but its washed? Was i being an annoying customer complaining?
Edit: For everyone sorry if I mislead you guys I'm a man not a woman.
