He praised the quality of the carpet in the room, but, the specks of blood all over the floor aghast him.

Furthermore, in the video, Chris Lewis filmed the underneath the rim of the washroom’s sink, which was covered with mold. He also showed the wrong positioning of the sink tap. The water coming from the tap was not landing in the middle as his hands almost touched the sink.

Prior to this, the vlogger exposed the Serena Hotels in Islamabad last year, terming it as the worst experience for a $300 room. Lewis said he visited Serena Hotel because of its five restaurants, but, the room service and food were mediocre comparing the high prices.
