Hotel staff in Changchun, China, were horrified to find a bizarre scene in one of the rooms after a long-term guest checked out. Mountains of trash everywhere, used toilet paper lining the toilet walls, and an almost unbearable stench. Cleaning staff needed three days to clean and disinfect the room, but it still needs a lot of work before it can be used as accommodation again.

This “guest from hell” had reportedly been living in the room for two years, hardly ever leaving the place and adamantly refusing to let cleaning staff inside. Most hotel workers didn’t even know what he looked like, because he didn’t even leave the room to get food, instead preferring to have it delivered to his room through an app.

According to local news media, the unnamed eSports hotel specializes in accommodation for esports competitors and streamers, offering private rooms equipped with state-of-the-art gaming computers, high-speed internet, and special gaming chairs.

After discovering the biohazard left by this “guest from hell” in their hotel room, the hotel decided to share photos on social media to highlight the plight of video game addiction. A spokesperson also said that the guest checked out with about 10 days’ worth of accommodation ($400) unpaid.

Photos of the hotel room full of used takeout containers, plastic bags, and plastic bottles, and the filthy bathroom full of used toilet paper, went viral on social media, leaving most people in utter disbelief that any person could have lived in these conditions for two years.
