This shouldn't be a thing. If you ever find a thing you think this should not be

you send it into Greg and me at Jane says at civic media dot us. J-A-N-E-S-A-Y-S. Jane

says at civic media dot us Calvin, you found this one this from Valley news live dot com.

Let's see who has the byline on here. No one wants to take responsibility for this headline

reads Fargo Hotel under investigation after workers seen soaking bed sheets in guest hot tub.

The health division at Fargo cast public health investigating a local hotel after an employee

was seen but soaking bed sheets in a guest room hot tub a family who was staying at express

way suites in Fargo said they watched a worker dump sheets into the hot tub and then mix

up a row with a broom. They recorded the whole incident and then posted it to social media.

guest Alex Ken Mill said quote at first I thought maybe the hub tub the hot tub was down the

drain was broken they were trying to soak up the water but then he stated started adding more

sheets in there and I was like what's going on. Family said they were disgusted by what those

they saw are we sleeping on these sheets it's disgusting with concerns Alex and family

contacted hotel management for answers about this in a recorded phone call with hotel staff

a worker said the sheets weren't dirty they'd been washed beforehand the worker also said

the sheets were put into the hot tub to remove stains this just gets worse and worse the sheets

are put into the hot tub and it gets out tiny little stains then the hot tub is drained it is

really heavily cleaned by a huge deep cleaner according to that employee hotel management however

declined to go on camera they said in a face-to-face conversation this is a last resort practice

for stain sheets they're planning to throw out well if you're going to throw a mount calvin why would

you go through all the work of putting them into a hot tub to wash them yeah I'm not totally

understanding the rationale at all like they should have stopped talking early on yeah like how

is this better than a washing machine I'm not sure they say this practice is typically done

after the pool is closed the employee in the video was talked about doing this in front of guests

well yeah because if you're washing hotel sheets in the hot tub maybe you don't want the guests

who are staying there to watch that when asked if this is a city approved practice

management said they're going to check with the health department

you may want to ask about that and official with Fargo cast public health confirmed their health

division is looking into the matter hot tubs while heavily chlorinated but because of the high

presence of bodily fluids can create a breeding ground for bacteria just sitting in a hot tub will

your skin will literally come off like your shedding says guest Amy Vandal the family says they've

contacted the city health department and will contact the state health department next maybe calvin

now on from now on when we go to hotels we should just bring our own sheet

yeah I hope I would like go down to the pool and make sure there's no sheets in the hot tub that wraps
