Sometimes hotels feel somewhat cold and it can be hard to feel at home, but with these tricks, you can make your room feel very soothing. They will guide you on how to use the usual items in your hotel in new ways and stay safe.
Taking Advantage of All That a Hotel Offers
Place your suitcase on the ironing board: The ironing board is secure enough to avoid bending down each time you want your belongings. The desk can double as a place to eat or get some work done.
To avoid heavy ironing, place your clothes in the bathtub, then begin to shower so your clothes get steamed and wrinkle-free. Another way is to put your clothes inside a plastic bag and use the blow dryer.
Block out the sun with the curtains drawn. Gather your curtains with a clipped hanger and this will let you sleep undisturbed by light.
Helping make things safer and more straightforward
Attach a hanger to your hotel door to act as a second lock for more security. A more secure way is to attach two hangers or to place the door handle and lock in the center of one hanger. It is helpful to jam a towel or washcloth into the latch to stop anyone from fitting tools or wires through the door.
You can charge your phone, tablet or other small devices with the USB connections located on the back or side of the hotel TV.
Use your coffee maker for more than coffee: boil water for instant noodles or porridge, but remember to clean it beforehand.
Always making things neat and clean
Create a place to keep your toothbrush by putting it in a paper cup instead of setting it on the sink. To store your toothbrush, upside down the cup and poke a hole in the bottom.
Wear a shower cap or plastic bag on the remote to stop germs and bacteria from getting on it.
Use some duct tape to protect kids by sealing off corners that might be sharp and electrical outlets. Doing this will help keep them from experiencing any pain.
You can do these things, too:
A mix of conditioner and water can act as shaving cream when it’s time to shave. It will allow you to shave comfortably and your skin will feel smooth and well hydrated.
A little handy tip: Fill your ice bucket with ice and put perishable items inside such as snacks or yogurt, to keep them fresh.
Remember to include the things you require in your suitcase. Stash an item of your clothing and belongings in the hotel safe so you won’t forget to pick them up as you depart.
Put a damp sponge full of dish soap aside to dry and when it’s done, cut it into smaller pieces to help with cleaning on the spot ¹.
