“I said no because I had already unpacked, and honestly, I didn’t want to deal with moving just because of her imaginary haunted-room theory,” the man explains
- A group of friends were on vacation when one of them decided they didn’t like the “vibe” of their room
- The woman asked one of her male friends if he would switch rooms with her, but he declined
- Now, the man is wondering if he was in the wrong
A man says one of his friends is now upset with him after she asked him to switch hotel rooms and he wouldn’t comply.
In a post shared to Reddit, the 26-year-old explained that he “recently went on a trip with a group of friends” and they “booked a nice hotel, and everyone was happy.” However, when they arrived, his 27-year-old friend, Jenna, “decided that her room had ‘bad energy.’ “
“She said the moment she walked in, she felt off, like something was wrong,” the post read.
“At first, I thought maybe it smelled weird or had a bad view, but no—she said it was the ‘vibe,'” he continued. “She even Googled the hotel to check if anything bad had happened there.”

Then, Jenna asked if he would swap rooms with her because his space “felt lighter.”
“I said no because I had already unpacked, and honestly, I didn’t want to deal with moving just because of her imaginary haunted-room theory,” he wrote in the post. “She got frustrated and said, ‘It’s just a room! If it doesn’t bother you, why not just switch?’ “
The poster told Jenna to ask the hotel for another room, which she did, only to find out it was fully booked.
Following the incident, Jenna acted “cold” toward the man for the remainder of the trip. The group was torn about the situation, and a couple of his friends thought he “was being stubborn over ‘something that wouldn’t have hurt me.’ “
Now, the man wants to know if he was in the wrong for not switching rooms.
Despite mixed emotions within his friend group, Reddit users were overwhelmingly on the poster’s side, with many arguing that Jenna was being selfish.
“If it had ‘bad vibes’ why should you endure [it]?” wrote one commenter, to which another agreed, “Why should you have to suffer with the bad vibes?”
Others wondered why the friends who sided with Jenna didn’t switch their own rooms if they thought he was in the wrong. “Why didn’t one of the other people in your group offer to change rooms with her?” one user asked.
