EXCLUSIVE I accidentally booked into a SEX hotel... here is what it was like

Daily Mail​29-06-2025
When your company send you abroad for a job it's hard not to envision yourself as one of those fabulous women sauntering through the airport in a tailor-made suit.
And when I was told I was being sent to Madrid I was over the moon.
In anticipation, I concocted a plan for my first night: check-in and walk into the local town for a glass of sangria.
So when the taxi driver confirmed the name of my hotel three times and I got dropped off on the side of the Spanish highway at a steel gate you can imagine my disappointment.
Nevertheless, in a state of delusion that could only have been brought on by the Spanish sunshine I was confident my hotel would look just like the pictures and there would be a lovely outdoor spot for me to sit and read my book before bed.
I don't think the hotel had ever had a visitor arrive by foot and so I was forced to stand in between two cars and queue for the 'reception'.
I was given some very funny looks by glammed up women and meek looking men behind the wheel - I assumed it was because I was a clueless Brit standing in a queue of cars - but just be sure while I was waiting, I thought why not check the reviews.
'If a discrete and a non-intrusive hotel is what you are looking for, this is the place. An "Adults Only" establishment' one read
'Perfect for a romantic getaway' added another.
Pictured: An array of 'spicy' menus available in the hotel room -they were scattered on the side table along with branded ash trays
My first thought was to panic, frantically looking for nearby hotels on my phone, but then it was my go to speak to the receptionist through a screen and as she handing me my key card I thought how bad can this really be?
Instead of walking to a hotel entrance I was confronted by a row of numbered garage doors - with number 123 open and ready for me to enter.
I walked in and the barrier rattled down, leaving me in the dark, luckily I grabbed onto a rusted spiral staircase and climbed up to my room.
After an initial inspection of the bathroom, which seemed clean enough I thought why not just lock the doors and firm staying here for the night.
The room was scattered with branded ash trays and gave off the faint stench of sweat and cigarettes but once I blasted on the aircon it seemed good to go.
A perk of this 'adults only' room was the King sized bed and as I lay down to inspect its comfort levels, I found myself staring at my own reflection, I sat back up and there I was again... the room was covered in mirrors.
Slightly freaked out I switched the lights on as the small blacked out window wasn't providing much natural lighting but the minute I flicked the switch the whole room turned blue.
While this might have been enough to encourage someone to check out, the blue LED light was actually the feature that encouraged me to stay, because it would have illuminated any unseemly stains on the mattress and there were none!
Trying to stick to my original plan I decided to order room service. There was an array of menus littered around the room and so I grabbed the first one I saw.
I opened it up and inside was an immense assortment of condoms, glow in the dark vibrators and handcuffs.
Unfortunately, I didn't fancy eating flavoured lube for dinner and I was able to locate a menu.
20 minutes later I heard a knock on a cupboard I opened it up and inside was a tray with my dinner on, and while many people would argue that salmon was a rogue choice, it was surprisingly good.
After a bit of Netflix and a high pressure shower I fell asleep and because the rooms were fantastically sound-proofed I woke up in the morning feeling refreshed.
Now would I recommend staying here? Absolutely not. But one thing I've learned is to always give something a go!

Teresa Giudice sizzles in bikini during sangria-fueled getaway... after her paltry RHONJ salary was revealed

Teresa Giudice is living in it up in the Mediterranean. The RHONJ star shared throwbacks from her recent getaway to the Spanish island of Mallorca, where she enjoyed sunshine and sangria at a beach club. Teresa, 53, worked her toned physique in a glittering silver bikini as she relaxed on a lounge chair, a glass of the Spanish cocktail by her side. It comes after Teresa's ex-husband Joe Giudice revealed the paltry paycheck she earned for her first season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Much has changed since her early days on the show, with Teresa and Joe serving time in prison for financial fraud, followed by a divorce, and the RHONJ star finding love again with new husband Luis Ruelas. The couple are travelling through Spain, and celebrated Teresa's daughter Audriana Giudice's 16th birthday in Madrid. Teresa's beach club post also showed off the full outfit she wore that day, which consisted of a white cover-up, studded flip flops, and metallic cowboy hat. 'Mallorca,' she captioned the post with a wine glass, champagne bottle, and lip print emoji. '#mallorca #beachclub #sangria #goodvibes #sunnydays,' she added along with a sunshine and sunglasses emoji. The vacation photos appeared to have been taken early this month, but her new post comes just a day after Teresa's ex shed light into their early earnings on RHONJ. Joe revealed on daughter Gia Giudice's podcast Casual Chaos that his then-wife earned a measly $25,000 when the show premiered in 2009. 'We got paid nothing the first season. I'll even say... it was like $25,000. I mean, it was ridiculous, but whatever,' the Joe, 53, said. Joe added that the couple actually spent more money than they made as they hosted lavish soirees while on camera. 'I think the first year, we had that big party in my great room,' he recalled. 'I think that show cost me $150,000 the first year.' During their conversation Gia conveyed that Housewives typically 'don't get paid that much money' during inaugural seasons. She noted that the salary 'grows as the seasons go on.' Gia, who now stars on the network's Next Gen NYC spinoff show, added: 'When you're throwing parties and stuff like that, especially for the first season, you're putting in more money than you're actually getting out of it.' She clarified, 'So then obviously, you grow and make your way and make your name. But for the first season when you're obviously trying to... this wasn't anything out of the norm.' And the reality television personality said that while they were married her parents 'loved' to host parties. 'I didn't care,' Joe agreed. 'I mean, every weekend, I had people at my house.' Joe also unpacked a regrettable moment that aired during his stint on the TV show, alluding to the time he was filmed calling Teresa a 'b*tch' and 'c**t.' 'The one up where we were at the vignette or something. I called your mother something. I know it wasn't very nice,' he acknowledged. 'That was just out of pure, you know, drinking wine and enough was enough.' The Italian-bred star emphasized, 'I don't even use that word. I hate that word. Why it came out of my mouth, I have no idea.' In addition to Gia and Audriana, exes Joe and Teresa also share daughters Gabriella, 20, and Milania, 19. They former spouses each served time behind bars for financial fraud. Following his completed prison sentence in 2019, Joe was deported to Italy. That same year the couple announced their separation. And they finalized their divorce in September 2020. Teresa found love again with Luis 'Louie' Ruelas, whom she wed in 2022. During the Casual Chaos episode featuring her father, Gia asked if there was any chance of a rekindling between her parents if her mom and stepdad were to split up. He answered: 'I mean, listen — you can never say "never."'

Holidaymakers with pet separation anxiety simply pack the pooch

It's not a dog's life if you are a pet in Britain. Our national capacity to spoil our furry friends extends to taking them on holiday with us, according to research. A study has found that growing numbers of people are taking their dogs — and sometimes other animals — on trips because they cannot bear to be separated from them. The study found that roughly one in four (26 per cent) of owners have taken their pets on foreign holidays, and the trend is driven by young people. Half of 24 to 34-year-olds have travelled abroad with their animals, compared with less than one in ten over-55s (9 per cent). Londoners are the most likely to take their pets with them. Holidaymakers may not have noticed the trend because the law forbids pets, except guide dogs, from travelling in the cabin of aircraft to and from the UK. However, most flag carriers, such as British Airways and Air France, have long-established pet cargo schemes. You won't see touring pets in the cabin of the aircraft, they have their own area ALAMY The research found that two thirds of owners would like to be able to travel on a plane with their pets, a practice that is allowed for animals below a certain size and weight on many European and American routes. Most owners who take their dogs with them on holiday to Europe use ferries and Eurotunnel, which both accept animals. Pets are allowed to leave and return to the UK under the Pet Travel Scheme, provided they meet the entry and exit requirements, such as having a microchip, a rabies vaccination and an animal health certificate. The certificates must be issued by a vet within ten days of travel. Ferries and Eurotunnel allow for fuss-free travel, but get the paperwork in order ALAMY The survey of more than 1,200 pet owners by the Co-op found that more than half (56 per cent) of those who take their pets abroad do so because 'they're part of the family'. However, roughly one in eight (12 per cent) said they do so because pet boarding facilities are too expensive. Most licensed kennels charge £17 to £20 per dog per day. Rates in London are often far higher — up to £90 a night for standard kennels and even £120 a night for high-end 'canine country clubs'. A third (33 per cent) of owners said they take their pets along because it ensures they will stay active on holiday, but one in three (31 per cent) said they 'couldn't bear the thought of leaving them at home' and would miss them too much. Another factor is that veterinary services are considerably cheaper on the Continent. An investigation by The Times in 2023 found that some procedures are up to three times more expensive in the UK than in France. • 13 of the best dog-friendly Airbnbs in the UK The Co-op says owners need to be careful when travelling abroad with pets because most standard insurance policies do not cover them for emergency treatment overseas. Andrew Nevitt, of Co-op Insurance, said: 'If you are taking your pet abroad, it's important that you ensure you have the correct documentation and they have had the necessary vaccines.' He added: 'Having the right insurance policy in place is also crucial as it will provide you with peace of mind that, should your pet require any treatment, any vet bills will be covered.'

The new eGates programs hopes to make it a quick trip through airport customs at these three cities

Security screening company CLEAR announced it is piloting biometric 'eGates' is coming to three major American airports in partnership with the Transportation Security Administration ahead of a nationwide rollout. CLEAR and TSA's pilot program kicked off Tuesday at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson, next week at Reagan National and the week of August 31 at Seattle-Tacoma, Axios reported. The eGates are being trialed ahead of what is expected to be a massive year for travel in the U.S., as airports anticipate millions of international travelers for big events such as the 2026 World Cup, expected to draw in 20 million visitors, and America's 250th birthday. 'This is frictionless travel. This is more secure," CLEAR CEO Caryn Seidman-Becker told Axios. "This is making airports great again, ahead of the World Cup." "It's fully integrated. It's one step. And the total transaction time should be between three and six seconds," Seidman-Becker added. The move will also free up CLEAR agents 'to bring other services to travelers,' Seidman-Becker said. The eGates are being fully funded by CLEAR, at no cost to taxpayers, the company said. Only travelers with CLEAR+ memberships, which allow them to bypass lengthy security lines, will be able to access the eGates. A CLEAR+ membership costs $209 a year. The new eGates will conduct real-time biometric verification to confirm travelers' identities, meaning once travelers are verified, they can bypass the TSA podium and go straight to physical screening. They then take that biometric data, such as facial recognition, and compare it with a passport to check someone's ID and let them through security. The TSA will still have complete operational control over the eGates, including triggering gate access and enforcing government security requirements. CLEAR says it has no access to 'no-fly' watchlists, cannot override TSA gate decisions and does not manually open the gates. CLEAR and TSA agents will remain at the gates to help travelers. The company says it only transmits limited data, such as the live photo, boarding pass and ID the traveler used for enrollment. While for now, the eGates simply provide a shortcut to the luggage screening process, they will eventually be able to scan passengers fully via biometrics, according to The Points Guy. After launching its pilot program, it will expand to at least 30 more airports within the next few years, according to the report. 'Our expectation is to roll this out nationwide and so that by the time the World Cup comes around next summer our airports are competing and leading with the airports around the world,' Seidman-Becker, the company's CEO, said.
