Brave guests can book a free night’s stay in Ibiza, but there’s a catch: the walls are glass.
Margaret and Corey Bienert, two travel bloggers who run the popular TikTok site A Pretty Cool Hotel Tour, ventured into the all-glass room built into the lobby of the Paradiso Ibiza Art Hotel, but they were “unprepared for the experience. “
“I thought it was such a funny idea,” Margaret said in a video posted earlier this week. “So of course I wanted to try it.”
But the hotel wasn’t transparent about in-room amenities or what the experience would entail, including the fact that the lights never turn off, even at night. That means, she noted, “you’re basically exposed all night.”
Footage from their whimsical evening shows staff mopping the floors, guests checking in at the front desk and passers-by snooping and even snapping photos of the couple lying on their plush bed.
“The thing is, I just hadn’t done any research to realize that this is an art hotel,” she admitted. “So whoever sleeps in that room for the night is just part of the art.”
It was also not completely soundproof, meaning that loud noises, music and other sounds could be heard within the room and vice versa.
As the couple said they closed their eyes, hotel guests knocked on the glass and woke the couple up at one point.
Their followers compared the situation to a “nightmare”, while others said they would have “fun” in the unorthodox quarters.
“New bucket list idea,” wrote one person.
“I could never … you are brave!!” defended another.
“I could never!!!! I would feel like an exhibit in a museum,” someone else commented.
When asked if there were any restrictions on what they could not do while in the room suggesting X-rated activities, Margaret replied that they were “not given any rules”.
This is in an adults-only art hotel, so it’s an experimental room that’s supposed to be a fun and different experience,” Margaret told Storyful, adding that if she could go back, she would make it more fun. .
Upon reflection, she said she wished she had planned to “entertain the guests instead of feeling completely vulnerable there all night,” such as performing the entire set list from Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, doing a live painting, asking for a kiss through glass for $5, or pretending to be in a locked room and need help getting out.
“Totally worth a visit despite having one of the weirdest nights of our lives,” Margaret said on TikTok.
