Hotels Are Older Than You Think | Funny History for Sleep
Stephen Dalton's Humorously Dull History for Sleep
26,368 views
Fall asleep as we explore the funny (and boring) history of hotels.
When did they first appear? When did they get hot tubs and wifi? The history of hotels, perhaps unsurprisingly, is filled with a great many people sleeping, so it's perfect to help you do the same.
We'll discover this and much more tonight. So enjoy this bit of history, presented in a calming, funny fashion, and nod off with a few laughs along the way to dreamland.
This should not it be taken as an authoritative source of history. It's boring history, delivered in a satirical way that's soft and slow. Perfect to fall asleep with a smile on your face :)

'dull stories', though dryly humorous, is something of a misnomer! Very enjoyable. I am impressed with the research. It's fun exploring human foibles throughout historicsl periods. Thank you.
Thank you Stephen as always! ❤
