Couple complains they felt "completely vulnerable" during stay in all-glass hotel room

Ibiza is spendy… but yeah free hotel room is free. Also if you’re in Ibiza aren’t you going to be out all night and trying to sleep during the day which would be awful in such an arrangement.

Not only would I not want to stay in that glass room, I’m not sure I’d want to stay in a hotel that offers such a stupid thing.

“Housekeeping, how may we be of service?”

“Yeah, hi. Could you send up, um… 200 bath towels and a couple rolls of duct tape? Yeah. 200 should do it. Appreciate you!”

This is an excellent representation of the principle of if some product you’re using is “free”, you’re the product.

There’s a great horror movie from 1982, The Entity, based on a true story.

It ends with a complete mock up of the tormented women’s home being built and observed at a university so they could capture the entity.

The glass room reminded me of the ending of that movie.

I also checked, the bathroom in that room is private.

as “true” as, say…the amityville horror? thought thats “inspired by” these days.

Director Martin Scorsese has also remarked his appreciation for the film, and ranked it the fourth-scariest horror film of all time, above Psycho and The Shining.

oh. okay.

I once stayed in a (regular, not in the lobby) hotel room where the bathroom was all glass. I didn’t book it (business trip) and I was alone, so it was fine. Just… odd.

Good 'ol Pi Theta Lambda, always hanging their signs upside down so you can read them from below.

The rest of the room was standard, though?

People who live in glass houses,
Should always wear their trousers.

paraphrasing Spike Milligan

In the far corner of the room is a tiny hallway, at the end of the hallway is a shower/basin/toilet room (walled in). There doesn’t seem to be tea-making facilities – how is one supposed to be art without tea?

Go there, be John and Yoko for a day. Or paint like Picasso

Yes. So much less weird than this, but still weird.

I’ve seen bathrooms in private homes that were all glass; it is very odd.

That’s the room. Here’s a pic from the hotel’s website…

My first thought is how much it would suck to keep all that glass spotless and how bad it would look if it wasn’t.

Next trend: bathrooms with dark lights built in!

I feel like partying all night and then just chilling in the room until you’re too exhausted to remain awake any longer might be the hack to actually get some sleep in this room.

True; from a strictly pragmatic viewpoint, any such room would be impractical a/f, regardless to its’ actual purpose.
