A couple who booked a recent weekend getaway were shocked to find 'handcuffs' fashioned from cable ties attached to the bed frame when they checked into their hotel room. The pair, who had picked their destination based on the favourable reviews it had received online, said that they were both "really creeped out" by the makeshift discovery.
They also claimed that there were also traces of a "suspicious looking white powder" on the bedside table. The husband, who asked not to be named, said that when his wife complained to the front desk at The Mariners in Falmouth, Cornwall, she was told by the manager there that he'd "been away" and "this is what he'd come back to."
"Someone had clearly been having a hell of a time in that room before we got there," said the 50-year-old training company manager from Cardiff, adding things "hadn't been great" from the minute they'd arrived at the seafront destination, which bills itself as 'a modern pub with rooms'.
