A travel expert claims two hotel areas are bad for guests.

Mark Wolters suggested moving rooms near bad areas.

Mark has visited over 80 countries and knows hotels.

Mark uploaded a video on when to change hotel rooms.

He said to avoid rooms near lifts or stairwells.

Mark explained that lift areas are noisy and busy, with people coming and going at all times, including drunk people and children, making it hard to sleep.

Mark thinks guests should ask to move if near a lift.

Mark said to ask to move away from the ice machine or elevator for better sleep.

He recommended moving if your room is by the stairwell, calling it a weird access point.

Mark said the stairwell can have strange noises and is an odd access point, so it's worth considering a room change.

The YouTuber suggested other reasons to ask for a room switch.

One reason is if you feel unsafe, which could be due to issues with the windows, door, or neighbors.

Mark explained that you don't need to explain why you feel uncomfortable, it's about safety, and things to check include the door's security and the peephole.

Mark has traveled to over 80 countries.

Another issue could be if the room is not clean, including an unmade bed or something unpleasant in the toilet.

Mark said things like lipstick on the mirror indicate a room hasn't been cleaned well, and it's worth bringing up because sometimes rooms are missed by the cleaning crew.

He added that waiting for the cleaning crew might take too long, so it's better to ask for a new room instead of waiting.

Mark also talked about the importance of a room's smell when considering cleanliness.
