Level -18

Level -18 is the 18th negative level of the Backrooms. It represents a large hotel with several floors, restaurants, and more.
==Description   ==
Level -18 is a vast hotel that spans up to 100 floors, offering an expansive and often disorienting experience for explorers who venture into the Backrooms. One of the most notable features of this level is the unique layout of its rooms, which consist of suites rather than the smaller, typical rooms found in Frontrooms hotels.
The level comprises a total of up to 100 floors, with each floor featuring 100 suites, resulting in a grand total of 10,000 suites.
This level is widely regarded as one of the cleanest and most pleasant levels throughout the entire backrooms due to its smooth carpets, pristine walls, and pleasant fragrance that lingers in the air. At first glance, the level appears to be a typical hotel, but in reality, it towers at an impressive 800 feet (244 meters) in height and spans over 7,000 feet (2134 meters) in length. The sheer size of the hotel is due to the multitude of restaurants, recreational facilities, and even a fully functioning hospital that it houses.
This level boasts an estimated 350 staff members who work at the hotel due to its size and the high number of wanderers it accommodates. The staff includes both Facelings and wanderers. Moreover, Level -18 has a unique safety feature called the "H.E.E" or Hostile Entity Evaporator, which instantly evaporates any hostile entities that enter, ensuring a safe environment for all wanderers. In the center of the hotel lies a massive Almond Water fountain, which is safe for consumption and has one of the highest Almond Water consumption rates ever since its discovery. Interestingly, the hotel appears to have an endless power supply and an abundant food supply that never expires, though the reason for this remains unknown.
This is level is described by wanderers as “A place to rest and clear your mind from the stress of the Backrooms”.
==Entities==
Child and adult Facelings can be found in this level. They are generally friendly towards wanderers unless they feel threatened, attacked, or provoked.
==Suites ==
As mentioned previously, Level -18 boasts 10,000 suites within the hotel, each measuring 60 feet in length and 60 feet in width. Inside each suite, guests will find a bedroom furnished with a king-sized bed, a living room area, a dining table with six chairs, a fully-equipped kitchen, a bathroom with a bathtub and shower, a fold-out couch, a wide flat-screen TV, a small workspace/office area, and a small laundry room. All furniture, lighting, and decor appear to be from the early 2020s. In addition, every suite features a patio area with a BBQ grill, a fold-up table, and fold-up chairs.
===Restaurant===
Located on the bottom floor of Level -18 is a large restaurant that spans an estimated 20% of the floor space. The restaurant features a bar with a TV that broadcasts shows and channels from the Frontrooms, and serves any kind of food from your favorite restaurant. It operates daily from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM.
===Gym===
Located on the bottom floor of Level -18 is a spacious gym equipped with various exercise equipment, including treadmills, Stairmasters, weight machines, a bike track, a running track, and a climbing wall. The gym also features speakers that play music suitable for working out, as well as a locker room for changing in and out of workout clothing.
===Arcade===
Located at the end of the hallway on the 5th floor, there is an arcade with a variety of games spanning from the mid-1970s to the mid-2010s. The arcade's blueish-purple carpet features planets and stars, and the dimly lit space is accompanied by music from the early 2010s. With a seemingly endless array of games, it's easy to get lost in the arcade. In the event that you do, there are signs to guide you to the nearest exit.
===Swimming Pool and Hot Tub===
Located next to the restaurant on the bottom floor is a large pool and hot tub, both filled with chlorine water. The pool features purple, red, and blue water slides that, on rare occasions, can transport riders to other levels. These levels are usually Normal levels, but sometimes negative or even sub-levels. The duration of the slide ride can range from 5-20 minutes.
===Hospitals===
Located on floors 50 and 100, you'll find small hospitals that operate similarly to hospitals in the Frontrooms. These facilities are staffed by actual doctors and nurses, many of whom are adult Facelings and Wanderers. In addition, a vaccine has been developed to protect against "The Disease," and it is now available for use.
==Colonies and Outposts==
===Backroom Colonists===
This outpost is primarily used for lounging and relaxing, but its members are also known to provide assistance to others. The outpost residents also have access to the hotel facilities.
===Hotel Staff Team===
This colony is comprised of 350 members, consisting of both Wanderers and Adult Facelings, who are assigned to work various jobs around the hotel such as receptionists, room-service staff, waiters/waitresses, mechanics, janitors, security guards, chefs, and bartenders. It was established on 9/27/2011, the day the level was first discovered.
===M.E.G. (Base Charlie)   ===
Base Charlie was established as a permanent facility just two weeks after the Level's discovery. It is staffed by 42 members who are responsible for collecting data, exploring the area, and providing support to anyone in need. While they are not open to trading, they are actively seeking new members to join their team.
===Azeutian Empire (Duchy of Edrin)===
The Duchy of Edrin was founded by The Azeutian Empire on March 4th, 2022, and is home to 102 people. The leader of the Duchy is Duke Robert of Edrin. They still hold a grudge from the Fourth M.E.G - Azeutian War. The Duchy is currently accepting wanderers to join and is open for trading.
===The Smiling - Base D===
This base is located in a room on Floor 82 and is one of the least populated, with only about 20 friendly Smilers out of a total population of around 1,000. Despite their small numbers, they are willing to offer support to any wanderers who may need it.
