I love the Lobby Boy!!!

I wanted so much to enjoy the Hotel but unfortunately it just wasn't for me. Although the premise - of an eerie and sinister hotel where guests meet grisly ends - was very appealing, the execution didnt resonate. I just cannot enjoy shows that are primarily or mostly single narrator - I don't want to be told what's happening, I want to experience it myself. I saw that there were several cast members listed so I thought it was a dialogue-driven show but instead it's 99% narration with the very occasional character quote. I'm a fan of short fiction so 7-10 minute episodes were enticing but honestly, nothing really happens in the time. As I perservered throughout first dozen or so episodes I realised I couldn't recall a single plot from anything I'd listened to. At that point, while listening to a character tell me over and over and over again that he was cleaning up blood (which I would rather have experienced being drawn from the victim, whose death made no sense) I decided to cut my losses. I wasn't enjoying the series, I was dragging myself through the first season as a stubborn goal I'd set myself.The Hotel has its fans and I've seen some rave reviews for it around various communities but it isn't for me.

I liked hearing the way The Hotel changes for each person.

The delightfully dark stories are what drew me in, but finding out more about the characters inhabiting the hotel, and The Hotel, herself, is what has kept me listening as each new episode as they come out. Or perhaps, I'm as trapped in The Hotel as everyone else who stops there is.
