Do I have to pay if the toilet in a hotel is clogged?

You don’t have to pay if the toilet in a hotel is clogged. As a fee-based service industry, it must provide a good environment and facilities to every tenant who pays rent. The hotel has the obligation to provide repairs and guarantees for its services. The fee at check-in already includes usage fees, etc., but intentional damage to property involves illegal crimes. If the goods or services provided by operators do not meet quality requirements, consumers may return the goods in accordance with national regulations and the parties agree, or require the operators to perform replacement, repair, etc. obligations. Operators providing goods or services to consumers shall perform their obligations in accordance with the provisions of this Law and other relevant laws and regulations. If operators and consumers have an agreement, they shall perform their obligations in accordance with the agreement, but the agreement between the two parties shall not violate the provisions of laws and regulations. Operators who provide goods or services to consumers must abide by social ethics, operate with integrity, and protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers; they must not set unfair or unreasonable transaction conditions or force transactions. You don't have to pay for this. These are all their responsibility. It's better not to argue with them. You can ask to change rooms.

As a fee-based service industry, they must provide a good environment and facilities to every tenant who pays rent. If you poured something that you shouldn't have poured into the toilet, it's definitely your responsibility. If it's the hotel toilet's own problem, it's not your responsibility. If you really want to solve the problem, buy a toilet spatula and use it a few more times, and find a professional to clear the toilet and solve the problem of partial blockage in the toilet and the problem of water and odor caused by the poor flushing of the toilet. If you are staying in a very regular hotel and you are using it normally and the toilet is blocked due to no fault of yours, you do not need to pay any compensation. On the contrary, the hotel should repair it for you as soon as possible. If it encounters a more humane thing, it should also apologize to you for delaying your use and causing you inconvenience.

1. No compensation is required. The fee at check-in already includes usage fees, etc. However, if the property is deliberately damaged, it will involve a crime. At present, our country's laws do not have clear regulations on the behavior of tourists, so generally no penalties will be imposed. If the damage is subjectively intentional, you will be liable for civil compensation.

2. Intentional destruction of public or private property, if the amount is small and the circumstances are minor, it is a general illegal act and should be in accordance with the provisions of relevant laws: theft, fraud, robbery, snatching, extortion or intentional damage to public or private property If property is stolen, he or she shall be detained for not less than five days but not more than ten days, and may also be fined not more than five hundred yuan; if the circumstances are more serious, he shall be detained for not less than ten days but not more than fifteen days, and may also be fined not more than one thousand yuan. According to the provisions of the Criminal Law, those who intentionally destroy public or private property, if the amount is relatively large, or if there are other serious circumstances, shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than 3 years, criminal detention, or a fine. Those who intentionally destroy public or private property, if the amount is huge or if there are other particularly serious circumstances, shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 3 years but not more than 7 years.

You can communicate with the hotel administrator first. If their waiter can clear the problem by himself, there is no need to compensate. If you need to hire a professional to clear the problem, you will need to compensate.

Methods to unclog the toilet:

1. Method 1:

Use a leather mop or cloth mop. If you have a leather mop at home, you can try it a few times. Try it. If you don't have a leather mop, use a cloth mop. First find a way to pass it as far as possible, then put the mop into the toilet and make a piston movement up and down like a leather shovel. It will work in no time! The reason is probably that after the mop entered the water and spread out, when it was passed down, it seemed to form a pressure surface, and when it was pressed in, it was passed! Note: If there is not much water in the toilet, you can add some boiling water for better results!

2. Method 2:

If you don’t have a leather bag or a cloth mop at home for a large Coke bottle, you can find a large Coke bottle near the bottom. Cut. Then, like using a leather spatula, aim at the mouth of the pipe, press from top to bottom, and press several times to clear it! Note: Be sure to close the bottle cap.

3. Method 3:

Use tape. Prepare a roll of 30cm wide yellow tape, and then wipe the edge of the toilet with toilet paper to make it easier for the tape to stick tightly. Then stick the tape flatly on the toilet rim, seal it, smooth the corners with your hands and make the tape adhere to the toilet rim tightly. When the water is released, the tape will bulge under pressure. Press the tape down with your hands. If you're lucky, it will work in no time! Method 4: Baking soda + white vinegar. Pour some baking soda in, then pour some white vinegar (the ratio is 1:1), wait for 15 minutes, then pour hot water and close the toilet seat. If the blockage is not serious, it will be cleared in a while.
