I find it funny, but I just can't see that happening to be honest. But you never know... just take a blacklight with you the next time your at a motel/hotel and run it over the bed with the lights off... you may just be suprised yourself.

I stay in hotels frequently -- over 200 nights a year.
I also don't stay in places like Motel 6 and other such establishments (I don't stay at the Four Seasons but generally Marriotts, Crowne Plazas and Hiltons)
I've come across some bizarre stuff in the bed linens. Large yellow stains, blood, condom wrappers, cracker crumbs, dead cockroach, hair, soiled towels... I don't quite think i've ever come across shit before, but ya never know.
I am in the habit of pulling the bedspread completely off the bed and checking just in case.
sometimes housekeeping just misses a room. A simple call to the front desk, and i get another room, and generally comped the room for the evening. Though I don't make a huge deal out of it.. though if I jumped in the bed, and came across any of that -- i'd be pretty darned grossed out.
I could absolutely see it happening. However for someone to expect compensation for it, it just ridiculous -- they're just looking to make money.
