I stayed at a Hilton Garden Inn in Canada for 1 night at $150 CAD pre-tax. Shortly after my late arrival around 23:00 local time, I spotted some small red (not sure if this were blood) and orange stains on the bedclothes, which I reported to the front desk. The receptionist said that as the only person at the hotel postmidnight, she couldn't do anything, but would note my complaint. So I placed towels to cover the stains on the linen, and slept without the duvet.
The next day, nobody contacted me. I then stumbled on the Housekeeping Manager in the hallway, who amply apologized and offered a 15% discount after seeing the stains in my room.
Yet I'm uncertain how much discount is warranted? 15% feels too meager to me: is it?

What can dirty sheets cause?
The presence of dust mites in your home (especially the bedding where you sleep) can make symptoms of allergies and asthma much worse. Constant exposure to these contaminants could even lead to allergic rhinitis, a condition that can cause severe sneezing, congestion or severe asthma attacks.How often should change bed sheets?
Most people should wash their sheets once per week. If you don't sleep on your mattress every day, you may be able to stretch this to once every two weeks or so. Some people should wash their sheets even more often than once a week.How dirty do your sheets get?
Dead skin cells, sweat, saliva, and more can turn your comfy bed into a petri dish for germs to grow. For instance, lab tests found that swabs from pillowcases unwashed for a week harbored 17,000 times more colonies of bacteria than samples taken from a toilet seat.See Which Hotels Were Caught Not Changing Bedsheets for New Guests
