Audible book: really loved this book, such a great story and the narrator, Christian Rummel, did an excellent job.

I quite enjoyed this one! While not really a "horror" story in my opinion, the story came together very nicely.
Written as a hotel concierge is giving a "tour" to the guests, it becomes short stories told by the "permanent residents of the hotel. Then at the end it all comes together.

Although the audiobook performance was spectacular, the story itself was just okay. I enjoyed the short stories that make up this narrative, but found that most of them ended abruptly or anti-climactically. And the conversations/lessons between the hotel clerk and the red haired girl came across as a little too didactic at times. But there were some decent supernatural tales in this collection - despite the predictable ending - so overall I enjoyed it.

just getting repetitive and not keeping me interested

I wanted to read something that was suspenseful and scary… this wasn’t that. The book showcases a collection of different stories about the long-term residents of the hotel. Some were interesting, some not so much. I found myself wanting the book to get to the point of what the story was about and the ending didn’t give the payoff I was expecting.
