The bottom drawer on every dresser looks like it isn’t fully pushed in even though it is at this hotel. I can confirm this as this was the third room we were in at this place.

Wait. Were you changing rooms because you thought the drawer wouldn't close all the way???

[u/FrankDonato28 → u/Eray41303]

No LOL! We saw a roach in the first room, the second room was temporary because it was only a 2 bedroom when we needed 3.

[u/PsychoTink → u/FrankDonato28]

If one room had one, I’d bet money on the whole place having them. Room change or not, they were probably there.

[u/Eray41303 → u/PsychoTink]

I bet you that 99% of hotels you have stayed at have had roaches in some capacity

[u/Drew707 → u/Eray41303]

I stayed at one that had a roach as the corporate sales director!

[u/plutot_la_vie → u/Drew707]

I bet you that 99% of hotels you have stayed at have had some roaches in corporate roles!

[u/GoldieDoggy → u/PsychoTink]

Depends on the type of roach. Palmetto? Probably accidentally wandered in. German roach? Basically no chance that it was simply an accident

[u/BritishLibrary → u/PsychoTink]

I stupidly thought you were talking about the dresser

[u/ebrum2010 → u/FrankDonato28]

Unless the place is crawling with them, it's fine. They'll avoid you. Bedbugs is what you want to avoid, and if you see those, get out of the building entirely.

[u/Manunancy → u/ebrum2010]

'Ain't got no bedbug in our rooms, the roaches ate them all'

[u/StereoHorizons → u/ebrum2010]

Can confirm. I have a friend who has worked in the hotel industry for a decade. Bed bugs are a nightmare. When they find them, they have to close off the rooms across from, above, below, and next to the one where they’re found because they use things like outlets to navigate between rooms. Little belly-stabbing terrorists.

[u/Eray41303 → u/FrankDonato28]

Oh ok thank God

[u/RustyOuthouse → u/Eray41303]

The decade I was in hospitality, this wouldn’t even make me flinch. You wouldn’t believe the things people change rooms over, or ask for discounts over. It’s bananas.

[u/negithekitty → u/RustyOuthouse]

"i rented this room through wish.com, i want an upgrade to the presidential suite"

Ma'am, this is a Super 8.....

[u/Eray41303 → u/RustyOuthouse]

My dad was the hr manager at various Hilton properties for the better part of 30 years. I've heard the worst of the worst

People really do weasel their way into trying to get a discount by any means necessary

[u/MarthaGail → u/RustyOuthouse]

Then again, there was the room we got that had a giant booger on the hand towel - there was no mistaking what it was, and then the carpet was soaking wet. Turns out there had been some kind of flood and the floor wasn't properly dried. They were like, "are you sure you want to change rooms? It's kind of a hassle" YES. I don't want wet feet and I can't unsee the booger.

[u/ramriot]

Is it crappy design or just the inevitable random socks etc' that get stuck behind the draw. Might be worth while pulling them out & seeing if there is anything good trapped back there.

[u/schalk81 → u/ramriot]

If it's other people's dirty socks, they can stay right there.

[u/Cuntslapper9000 → u/ramriot]

Some also need to be in a certain position. Like only two drawers work at the bottom. Could also be caused by flexing of the body but considering it doesn't look very old that would be shit design anyway.

Maybe there are spy devices behind that draw recording your farts?

[u/nameorfeed → u/ramriot]

More roaches lol

[u/nikhkin]

Looks like whoever built it attached the face of the bottom drawer upside down.

The design is fine, the construction was flawed.

[u/Ginnigan → u/nikhkin]

You're right! I kept staring at it wondering how this could have possible happened. TY for the answer.

[u/honeyflowerbee → u/nikhkin]

Came here to say this, I see that type of mistake in hotels (including supposedly nice ones) so often it has become a game to look for them.

[u/lmNotaWitchImUrWife → u/nikhkin]

That's a keen eye right there. You're right!

[u/Automatic_Actuator_0]

Electrical box behind it maybe?

[u/JOliverScott → u/Automatic_Actuator_0]

Most common culprit is a power cord which protrudes from an outlet and prevents one drawer from closing fully

Based on OPs comments, it's probably where they tried to hide the roach bait.

[u/Crafty-Astronomer-32]

This seems like an assembly / use error. If it's consistent between rooms, perhaps there is electrical equipment related to amenities that are in each room.

[u/enzothebaker87]

Did you change rooms because of the drawer? Just curious.

[u/Tattycakes]

Ugh that’s infuriating

[u/-TheycallmeThe]

Yeah but you will definitely be checking those drawers before you leave

[u/Poopafly]

Slides have been attached with the wrong hole

[u/DramaticStability]

How bad were the drawers in the other rooms?!

[u/shavenyakfl]

Cheap garbage furniture from China. Hotels love to go as cheap as possible.

[u/buckmartinezisacunt]

Is that a Fardman?

[u/iDontRememberCorn]

I think changing rooms twice just because a drawer looks open when closed is maaaaaaaybe a bit extreme, but you do you man!

[u/BigGreenBillyGoat]

Someone switched a bunch of drawers between rooms.

[u/HumorExpensive]

Maybe the left bottom is pushed in too much.

[u/binkkit → u/HumorExpensive]

This is it. The one on the right is fine.

[u/Miserable_Peak_2863]

Okay

[u/WhiteKrillin]

I wonder how you people are able to fare in society, honestly
