This whole attitude is why so many costs have sky rocketed. A tragedy happens and we open our pockets wide and say 'I want money!!" We have become such a litigious society. Everyone wants to be compensated extravagantly when something goes wrong.

That hotel had zero fault in this situation. Yes, they should relocate you to another floor. Yes, they should comp the night but honestly, what do you expect them to do? What if a woman had been raped down the hall? How much is that worth to you? What if...you heard loud sex in the room next door and your kids heard it too. How much for that?

The ones who deserve to be compensated with our prayers and sympathy are the family members of the ones who were killed. Good grief man. Buck up. Take care of your family and focus your thoughts on the pain the survivors must be having.

Wouldn't surprise me if some guests hire a lawyer to sue the hotel for mental anguish and suffering. Because that's. just. what. we. do.
