I also find myself wondering what hotels he is staying in, because I've stayed in some super-crap hotels and I've never had any problems like that...

The only thing I can *vaguely* agree on is that I wish hotels would warn people when they have something like an anime convention or a sci-fi convention or a high school sports tournament in the hotel that isn't taking up the entire hotel, and let people make the decision of whether they want to put up with the noise for themselves.

Because from what I've seen at anime cons, it would save the front desk a decent amount of having to deal with raging mundanes screaming about shutting up the convention noise.
