58% of reviewers disliked the Mahkota Hotel Melaka in Melaka, Malaysia

'First room air con broken, sliding door wouldn't lock, and lots of noise from up stairs. Changed rooms. Faced the street. Big deal you say but many rooms must do. It was like sleeping ON the street with all the traffic noise. Room smelled moldy. mould evident on bathroom tile and ceiling. Balcony door wouldn't lock.'

98% of reviewers disliked the Hotel Metro Tower in New Delhi, India

'As frequent travellers: The worst hotel we have ever been! The hotel was rotten, dirty, nothing worked, no air condition, no hotel water, smelly and dirty toilet along with mosquitoes and dirty bed sheets, extremely loud from the road, and hard to get a sleep there, the most extraordinary was ' BREAKFAST'. Three slices of burned toast bread without any additionals and one cup of black tea. If you are not a masochist then avoid this 'hotel.''
