Every once in awhile scouts from these shows come on this forum looking for new owners who want to share their experience or older properties that need improving. Don't sign up. The entire show is designed for drama. Cut here, dub there, nothing is as it happened.undersea said:
If he walked into the hotel room and said, 'good job,' everyone would change the channel.
There was nothing wrong with that hotel as it was, other than the lists. The view was of the parking lot, who was he kidding? There was no place to sit to enjoy the view. The room was basic hotel. It was probably half the price of others in the area.
But it has to be about the drama.
And, yes, the lists were absurd. He should get worked up about those. But everything else? Drama.
The Restaurant Impossible guy is somewhat similar. The theory is that they redesign the entire restaurant on a budget for $10,000 in 2 days. Imagine that compared to what it really costs.He puts his hands on his head in disgust/amazement and goes ballistic more than anyone I know on the telly...TV drama.

Then, it turned out there was a craigslist (?) ad asking for volunteers to help to rehab a restaurant, and it turned out to be that show.
In other words, it is a $10,000 budget if you don't count labor...

Well, haven't seen the show, only the clip someone posted the other day, and well, I finally purchased the black light flashlight.
I figure someone else will eventually bring their own. Better beat 'em to the punch..

I know you also have to get the orange glasses to look through when you use the black light.
I got a good blacklight flashlight and the glasses and really can tell much with it. I think the light Anthony uses on TV is much more powerful. Chances are slim that a guest will arrive with one powerful enough to see anything. I'd say save your money.

The urine must be dry to see it in the light. The room must be dark. You can see the florescence from the salts from the dried deposits. We purchased because of a tenant who left an unattended cat in her apartment for many days. We needed photographic proof of damage. Another story, but the black light will come in handy for cleaning checks too. Yep it works, the price was right, and the shipping time was less than 48 hours. Oops, I guess I outed myself by not checking which name replying under. Oh well.Well, haven't seen the show, only the clip someone posted the other day, and well, I finally purchased the black light flashlight.

Oh and Arks is right about more powerful versions out there. Try googling CSI black light, but prices are higher for those. The $14 model does the job for me. I have yet to use it for the rooms.

Works better if you have the tinted yellow glasses for this.

Not in the UK but I saw it. I thought that it was interesting that Alex's suggestions were about how to make things easier for them and not that they hire someone on to help them.
