I was usually too tired to care.

Bleah!<BR/><BR/>Most of the rooms I have stayed in have had solid bed bases, so nothing gets lost under the bed. <BR/><BR/>But as far as the other stuff goes? I try not to think too much or look too hard when I'm staying in a hotel. It would just drive me nuts.evilsciencechickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03694103743257517771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10155420.post-1114609129366254352005-04-27T09:38:00.000-04:002005-04-27T09:38:00.000-04:00My best friend wraps the remote in toilet paper be...My best friend wraps the remote in toilet paper before she will touch it.

Comforters get washed twice a year - unless the hotel is a dump - then you're lucky if it's once a year. Housekeepers clean the obvious - tub, sink, toilet (usually -- I have worked in many a hotel where even this didn't get done). <BR/>My husband travels with a travel-size can of lysol and all doorknobs, phones and remotes (OMG - Ammo gal, these are worse than the phones) before he settles in.armalicioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15569772344297408167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10155420.post-1114604510544446892005-04-27T08:21:00.000-04:002005-04-27T08:21:00.000-04:00Chris V. breaks out into a cold sweat when you tal...Chris V. breaks out into a cold sweat when you talk about hotel comforters. One time I just wanted to see how badly he would freak out so I told him that I was in the habit of licking hotel comforters as soon as I arrive in a hotel room, and he completely broke down and had a full-on panic attack. Who the hell would lick a hotel comforter? Seriously. Even knowing I was kidding, he couldn't keep it together. It was fantastic.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14407176268678483154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10155420.post-1114603852399339762005-04-27T08:10:00.000-04:002005-04-27T08:10:00.000-04:00Um, can I ask how you got that photo?

Go to any hotel room, lift the receiver off the hook, and be disgusted by phone gizz. It's a combination of makeup flakes, cheap perfumes, skin cells and ear wax. That's on the ear piece. On the other end is dried spit, maybe some dried food. And the handle...ew.<BR/><BR/>Don't sit on the couches if they have any.
