One of our guests at the Holiday Inn called the hotel saying they served a stinking orange juice to a guest.
In this video, which has been viewed over 2.7 million times, TikTok user Daniel Wolfe (@the_wolfepack) is seen dumping a brownish-yellow liquid into the bathroom sink. Solids remained at the bottom of the sink after the liquid was drained. They looked like pulp.
Wolfe claimed the liquid was rotten orange juice from a Holiday Inn. He revealed that he was repeatedly refilled with dark orange juice to prevent other visitors from drinking it.
“When a hotel gives you bad OJ. Keeps giving out refills so someone else doesn’t get sick,” he wrote in the video’s text overlay.
In the video’s caption, Wolfe writes, “The hotel didn’t seem to care that it was brown or sour.”
The Daily Dot reached out to Wolfe via comments on the video and the Holiday Inn by email after no other means of contact could be established. This story will be updated with their comments.

In the comments section, viewers encouraged Wolfe to call her local health department or file a report.
“If you want to know why hotels are handing out brown orange juice, call your local health department,” wrote one commenter.
“They didn’t want to do anything about it, so call the health department,” agreed another.
“I would have called the health department and sent the photos,” echoed a third.
Other users were simply disgusted by what they saw.
“Looks like someone had a bad night in the bathroom and scooped [it] From the toilet,” wrote one commenter.
“As a hotel employee in charge of breakfast, I apologize for the unacceptable quality of it,” another commented.
One commenter explained why the orange juice went bad.
“Yo, I used to work [the] kitchen [at a] hotel,” they wrote. “Was it cold? Literally the juice machine didn’t seem to be on/cooling the juice properly.
