In any guest survey the number one non-negotiable importance for guests staying in motel/hotel accommodation is always cleanliness.In various quality assessments, "cleaning" is quite rightly highly weighted to reflect this.
The standard in the accommodation industry is that a guest room must not have any evidence of prior occupation. This sounds like a standard that can be easily achieved, however in any accommodation business, an incredible amount of hard work and investment is necessary to achieve this.
As consumers' standard of living have increased, our immediate environment has become more rarefied and sanitised. In a world where the media plays on fears of deadly outbreaks of pestilence, we have become hyper-sensitive to any supposed presence of harmful bacteria and germs.
TripAdvisor are well aware of these fears and have recently compiled a "Top 5 Germiest World Attractions."

I stayed in a Hotel on the Costa Del Sol once and was welcomed (at 2am in the morning after a late transfer) by a toilet choking on an entire toilet roll soiled by the part dried out faeces of the previous occupant.
It was clear whoever had had such trouble in the bathroom was also a smoker.
We checked out the next morning and went to Torremolinos.
