![When staying in a hotel doesn't always go according to plan...](/web/20160812223405im_/http://www.traveller.com.au/content/dam/images/g/q/q/z/s/s/image.related.articleLeadwide.620x349.gqqz2h.png/1470967462519.jpg)
When you've forked out a not insignificant sum for the privilege of staying in a hotel for the night, even the smallest issues become incredibly irritating.
After all, what are you paying for if the room is dirty, the kettle plug can't reach the wall, or the staff accidentally spoil Ron's 60th surprise celebration (see below)?
In the age of social media, customers are quick to vent their bemusement, with the hashtag #hotelfail providing a perfect platform to highlight some of the shortcomings in service and accommodation guests have had to put up with.
