Rub-a-dub-dub? Not in these tubs

Most of us have showered, at one time or another, in a hotel shower-bath combo. Usually with shower sandals on. But we're willing to bet that not too many people are brave enough to actually take baths in one -- especially when it's not perfectly clean. And when it's really, really not clean -- we're talking soap scum, grime, mold, rust, or even unwelcome critters -- the thought of even showering in it makes us shudder. Below, take a look at the hotel tubs you couldn't pay us to bathe in.

We might be willing to share our bath with a rubber duck on occasion. Cockroaches, like this one in the bathrub at the Richmond Hotel, are quite another matter.

Bathtub at Fitzgeralds Casino. We're a little doubtful about this tub's capacity to hold water.

We found a hair and what appears to be a booger in our tub at the Celuisma Paraiso Tropical.
