We've been turned down many times

Also, you need a Chinese phone number to get free WiFi anywhere. Really unfriendly to international tourists

We went to a lower end hotel because we just needed somewhere to sleep for the night and when they saw me they are like no foreigners

I read that on Reddit lol

We finally convinced them just to not register me

Someone said he had to go to the expensive international hotel down the road

And the place was a complete shithole. Literal cumshots on the wall that they couldn't be arsed to wipe down. Janitors roaming the halls pretending to work

Wtf

There's a weird culture around janitors here. They are all shite

And no one tells them to be good

I've stayed in some cheap hotel in Thailand

Still ncie and cleab

All the janitors are like women in their 50s and up and just pretend to work most of the time. Receive no training and no management

Staff friendly ok WiFi as well

Hahaha

Yeah I've stayed in cheap places around Asia too with no problem

But China they have zero standards

Is Taiwan ok?

My dad was thinking of going there on holiday

Not sure what's there but whatever

Taiwan is incredible, a literal paradise compared to China

Lmao

Your dad will have a blast

Very international traveler friendly

Lots of culture

Beautiful scenery, cheap food

Sounds good

If you're in China , don't bother with cheap hotels. You can get a 5star experience for $100 a night

They are great. Look for foreign owned hotels

Cheaper than the west but same experience

If you go to a $25 hotel, you're going to get cumshots and black mold. Try to complain, they will yell at you for critsizing the hotel

So we ordered a package like 5 days ago and it hasn't arrived. It said yesterday that it was "out for delivery" but it never came. In China they put the phone number of the delivery driver on there

So we call and ask nicely about the package

And the guy is like "What?? Huh what do you want?! Hurry up, speak!!"

And there is like a crying baby in the background

And long story short he says "I have hundreds of packages to deliver!! You'll get yours when it comes!! Wtf am I supposed to do!!"

Like screaming and yelling at us

The crying baby in the background means that he was sitting on his couch at home or a friends house

I said we should report his dumbass to his boss, but my fiancee and her mom are like no. If you report people here, they show up at your house and threaten you like "why the fuck did u report me I'll kill u"

Or they constantly call or send goons to stand outside your place

So they have these really intricate reporting systems for all the services because the companies want quality control - but no one does it because they are scared
