TL;DR

If your room has wall stains, peeling paint, or broken furniture (like a broken bed leg), request a room change at reception immediately — but be prepared that hotel staff may stall, repeatedly asking you to 'come back later'.

What the community said

A guest reported serious room issues: stains on walls, bubbling paint, poor drainage in the shower, and a bed leg broken so badly the bed tilted when a child sat on it. She tried to get the room changed the next morning, but hotel staff kept telling her to come back later, delaying resolution.

Wall stains + broken bed leg

Another traveler noted she didn't scrutinize minor room flaws like wall stains or paint condition since she only stayed a few nights. For her, what mattered most was cleanliness, a nice view, a comfortable bed, a working shower, and a kettle — she spent most of the day outside the hotel anyway.
