Her confessions included secrets about the hotel rooms. Richard stated that people should never sleep on top of the bedspread. This was because the management rarely ever cleaned the sheets or duvets in between guests.
The young lady revealed that the pitcher of water and glass cups present in the room should also be avoided. This was because the management never bothered to change the glass cups as long as they looked clean.
