Asking for extension to 2 pm was not possible, so I went back to my room to pack up and as I was leaving the bathroom, something strange happened that resonate well with something woke me up at 4:10 am occurrence. Talk about this next time.

I was sleeping alone and was awoken by a snoring sound seemed next to me which I thought it was but there was no one else in the room except myself. So the probable answer could likely be the room next door as the head rest piece of wall is the only separation between 2 beds. Without giving much bordering, I continued to sleep.

About 20 mins or so later, I was awoken again by showering in the bathroom, like someone taking a bathe in my room. Why would someone shower in my bathroom with the door opened? Half awoke, I lifted myself up and looked at the floor outside the bathroom door and the wall facing it to see whether there was any shadowing reflected from the light in the bathroom as I have the habit of switching on the bathroom light before I go to sleep to prevent accident. Although the showering sounded so real from my bathroom, there was no shadowing and I remembered I have double locked and latched the room door. So my assumption was again the room next door must be having a good time and someone there with his girl doing showering together. I then looked at my mobile and the time was 4:10 am. So, I continued to sleep but couldn't quite sleep as I can still hear the water sound for the next 8 to 10 mins (estimated).

Next morning, while I approached the bathroom to do my washing up, I noticed the floor in the bathroom was totally wet, the area where you stand facing the mirror and in-front of the WC while the shower area was not wet but mildly damp from my own usage last night. Strange isn't it .... . I looked around, up & down and find no clue to it. So, I continued to do the necessary and go for breakfast.

Fast forward from breakfast, visiting Spa and back to room 723 to check out.

I do packing up, collect personal loose items, used the WC and final checked for loose items again before leaving. At this very moment just after my final checked where I won't be stepping into the bathroom again and while I turned right towards the bed to collect my bag, it started raining again in the bathroom, "what the heck!", in double quick time, I turn my back and standing outside the bathroom door. What I saw was horrific and unbelievable! See picture below.



The mystery was solved. Water flowed out from the ceiling board around the down light. You can imagine what kind of water this was. Had I not stepping out early or worst still if I was using the WC or just after shower drying myself ..... I can't imagine that ...... Also, there is a high chance on short circuit. Who knows how drastic it is going to be when sewage water come into contact with electricity.

I checked out and informed the front desk showing them the above picture. They said they will look into it and hopefully they do. One thing for sure, I won't be staying in room 723 when I checked into Da Vienna again.

You took a couple massage room....which is some precaution already.
Probably the mistake made is you closed the door.

$100 is a lot.....

Thanks for inform....we will be more careful in future.
Can't confirm. The therapist closed the door for me.

I always make it a point where I can see my belongings or bring it along with me. This time round based on personal assessment that this uneventful situation was unlikely to happen at a place like this. Thus, I let my guard down. Anyway, it was a lesson learned: when you think the impossible don't happen, it happened. Always be vigilant instead of looking for cured.
