S'pore couple shamed on Taiwan TV for damaging hotel room

A Singaporean couple has made headlines in Taiwan - for all the wrong reasons.

The couple allegedly caused damages amounting to at least NT$30,000 TWD (S$1,300) during their stay at a family-owned bed-and-breakfast in Taipei earlier this year in June.

The owner of the bed-and-breakfast, identified as Mr Wang, told Taiwanese media that the couple had turned up a day earlier than expected and checked in without his consent.

The pair had also reportedly left the water tap in the toilet running, and turned on the air-conditioning in the room at 16 degrees celcius for two days straight.


According to the owner, this caused ice to form on the interior of the air-conditioner and the compressor to crack, leading to irreparable damages to the unit and high utility bills.


The couple had also refused to pay for their stay and even threatened to not return the room key, according to the report on Taiwan's CTI TV.


Items were also reported stolen from the Hello Kitty-themed room, which was decorated with various Hello Kitty items and cushions.
 
How does one check in a hotel without consent? Stole the keys to the room? And damaging the aircon because of the temperature setting tells me it already had issues or is of lousy quality.

For stealing, not paying the bill and leaving a water tap on they should be punished though.

That is if the story really happened as reported and i somehow don't believe it.

U brought up a good point. and for the air con,...u cant cos ice to form at 16deg Celsius. These Taiwanese can be damn unscrupulous in their biz dealings. maybe they have triads behind them as well.

can lah, 16C for the environment, but ice formed at the coils.

need to off unit and wait till ice defrosted before functioning properly again.
 
With modern airconditioners such problems r not possible lah. As the system should shut down. And how the couple check in without his permission? This story damn tall. Anyway these hokkeins can be damn unscrupulous.
