50 Times People Spotted Simple Yet Genius Solutions In Their Hotels And Shared Them Online (New Pics)
In the times of worldwide pandemic, which feels like endless doom, the sole thought of staying in a hotel sends bursts of joy down my spine.
From the sheer indulgence of emptying out an overpriced minibar to rolling into the crisp, clean bedsheets, and joining your travel companions at a breakfast buffet just before the new day’s adventure begins, the things we took for granted are now something we’d be privileged to have.
So let’s dive deep into the nostalgia of a pre-pandemic world and the hopes that travelling without the viral anxiety awaits around the corner. Today, Bored Panda has compiled a perfectly indulgent list of the most clever, simple, and creative solutions installed at hotels that put the hospitality business in a well-deserved spotlight.

I Asked The Hotel If I Could Bring My Cat. This Is What We Arrived To
Spread the name of their business/hotel. Service like this needs to be appreciated. Plus I guess there are ppl with cats who‘d love the recommendation since there are not many hotels that welcome cats!
i don't have a cat... and I think I'd go there just because that service is next level.
Load More Replies...This is absolutely wonderful! A hotel that not only looks after the guest's needs but goes beyond that by supplying somewhere for the kitty to sleep, poop and play and scratch is an excellent hotel! I hope this person shares the hotel name far and wide so people provide this thoughtful establishment with the business they absolutely deserve!
AMEN. I want to stay here. If my fur babies are welcome than so am I.
Load More Replies...Blessed Hotel Staff
From what I learned from the other post I know that this cat is the daughter of Daniel 😄
Was thinking the same thing! Bored panda educating us.
Load More Replies...Yes but the name Pál doesn’t exist, we have Páll as a male name but you are right about the surname “dóttir” is for girls and “son” for boys
Load More Replies...Nobody could have guessed the level of crisis the hospitality industry would find itself in when the pandemic started. At the peak of the coronavirus crisis, many compared it with the black-swan events society has experienced before. Black Swans like the coronaviruses (COVID-19, SARS, H1N1) or the September 11th attacks are rare, unpredictable evens which dramatically alter history, the economy, and society.
This Hotel Gets It
I always hated that some apartments and hotels dont allow dogs because "they are dirty" or "they will break stuff". Humans are dirty, loud and often break or stealthings. The only thing that my dog will do is shed and thats easily fixable with a vacuum.
Same! Humans can to way worse things that can't be fixed that easily :/
Load More Replies...Well if I check in with my dogs, I can stay maximum two nights. After that my dogs start treating the room as their territory meaning every guest on the floor is a potential intruder and has to be scared (no matter what time).
When Your Hotel Staff Go The Extra Mile
I know, right? That is the extra mile of the extra mile.
Load More Replies...Haha! Bet they didn't mention that ;)
Load More Replies...It seems like they were playing Animal Crossing. So there is only one save slot per account.
Load More Replies...Me too! Still pretty new, about two weeks past the "big concert" but things are developing nicely! I'm still too shy to invite anyone other than my son to my island but I'm working towards that goal
Load More Replies...But although cyclical in the past, the hotel industry has realized that this time, it’s something they haven't experienced before at such length. It wasn’t deep, but ultimately a short disruption before things got back to normal.
On the contrary, as we sadly commemorate the 1-year birthday of coronavirus, hoteliers around the world had no idea when it’s going to end. Many businesses were forced to shut their doors, while others are hanging in there while applying protective measures and the new pandemic normality as part of their regulatory policy.
Towel Animal Left By The Hotel Staff
Sorry, but I don't like the idea of putting towels on the toilet seat 😐
Or the possibility of them falling in when you try to take them off.
Load More Replies...I hope they left extra towels cause i wouldn't want to use the ones that were on the toilet
these probably are the extra towels? That's how I'd do it, if I was creative/skilled enough to make towel-animals.
Load More Replies...I like it. Great sense of humour. Unfortunately there are some miserable people out there that don't have that. Its not like they have to use it.
But yet you are all touching your cell phone right now...that's dirtier than that just cleaned toilet.
I get your point, but (of all places) would you choose to rest your phone on a clean toilet?
Load More Replies...Awesome Hotel Gesture
"defiantly" actually works in this sentence too!
Load More Replies...I've stayed there with no children and had a bear in my room too. I think he's the mascot. I left him there for the next guests.
When I traveled to Sweden for work I booked a single room in a small hotel. All the single rooms had a nice teddy bear from a famous Swedish brand to keep company to guests. When I left, I sitted it with a book in the paws to make the maid laugh. After I came home I found the same bear and I bought it for myself!
To find out how exactly the worldwide pandemic has affected the hotel industry across the country, Bored Panda reached out to Niki Reading, the representative of Washington Hospitality Association.
“The hotel industry in Washington was hit by COVID just as the busy summer tourism months would have begun. This impacted revenue per room significantly. As of February 2021, the most recent date for which statistics are available, revenue was down 53.6% from the same time last year.”
Meanwhile, in the 4th quarter, “lodging in Washington saw a loss in sales of $629 million, or 59 percent under the previous year. Seattle was the worst hit among any West Coast city, with an occupancy rate of 36.1 percent,” Niki added.
Instead Of A Bible, My Hotel Room In Philadelphia Has The Constitution And Declaration Of Independence
I like that - I always thought it was a little sad that people of religions other than Christianity never got access to their holy books in hotels, but I guess part of the reason is that there are more rules about how the Torah and Qur'an are kept/taken care of.
Bibles were put originally put in hotel rooms by an organizations called The Gideons. They are christian organization comprised of and geared toward business people. They started putting the bibles in hotels and motels so that traveling business people that couldn't conveniently carry a bible with them had access to one. It was also in the hopes that the sinful activities in hotel rooms would be deterred because of the presence of a bible. The Gideons do this free of charge and used to touch almost every hotel in the US.
Load More Replies...Is the Bibles in the room a thing from USA? I have never seen it in Europe.
I was going to write the same thing I've never seen any in Europe! I've been also to dresden in Germany didn't see there either! I always found strange to have the Bible at a hotel
Load More Replies...Surely if you are that religious you probably have your own religious text you brought with you?
Great idea because not everyone is Christian, so why have a Christian book? I always thought a dictionary would be better because everyone always needs/uses it.
That's kind of the idea.. they are provided by a private company as a tool for evangelizing. I guess the idea is you will be bored/lonely/broken in a hotel room and turn to the bible for comfort.
Load More Replies...Reading a book doesn't make you a good person. In fact, the founding fathers had the idea of a secular state. They were atheist.
Load More Replies...Last hotel I stayed at had a world atlas in the drawer which was a good touch
What a GREAT idea! I'd certainly make use of them while relaxing in my room.
Missed Out Camping This Year, So I Asked For A Tent In My Hotel Room
ive seen few hotels who actually take requests like these. I hade one time where I asked for a cat bed in my hotel room because I like to have one around for fun (I sit in them sometimes) and the legit put a catbed with a stack of pillows and blankets and a decently sized fish stuffy. the best part? THEY KNEW I HAD NO PETS WITH ME. FGHJKLJHGF. BEST HOTEL EVER.
Load More Replies...You don't have to be rich enough. Everyone can put in a request. I do it all the time for my boss (it's our joke, I only ask for pictures of famous people on the nightstand, so very easy simple request)
Load More Replies...This seems like a very American thing. Most hotels I have been to in Europe would laugh at you for such requests. Or charge you a fortune for it.
American here. The only time I've seen stuff like this was at a Disney World hotel. The cleaning lady arranged my stuffed animals near the window and even left a pretty note. And I have been to plenty of hotels.
Load More Replies...Alright but I can guarantee if the hotel actually did this it was not free.
I think that it would be impossible to get this kind of service in France (except if you are extra rich and/or famous) and if they do it, they will be an article somewhere to talk about how "this" person is VERY demanding!
Niki also explained that many people don’t realize that motels and hotels—even major franchises—are owned and operated by local families. “These aren’t mega corporations—they are family businesses that have been decimated,” she concluded.
This Hotel In Singapore
Apartment buildings should be like that! Great for the environment, makes the city look pretty and gives people a great terrace.
My first thought was of all the oxygen being provided by the greenery. A beautiful way to relieve environmental stress in the midst of city chaos.
I've been here! Both the interior and exterior are absolutely STUNNING!
Oh? I live there but I've never been to that building. Seen a documentary though.
Load More Replies...I Ordered Snacks From Room Service And They Sent A Refrigerated Robot Butler To Deliver Them
I went to this hotel, it's really great! And the breakfast is good too!
But now that the weather is finally getting warmer and more and more people are getting vaccinated, hotels are slowly but steadily regaining their relevancy.The hotel industry just had its highest occupancy levels in the past two weeks since the start of the Covid pandemic last March, Wyndham Hotels and Resorts CEO Geoff Ballotti told CNBC.
“These last two weeks ... have been the highest two weeks of occupancy in our industry since last March and to see occupancy levels now back to 85% of where they were in 2019 is impressive,” Ballotti added.
This Checklist From A Hotel
Still remember the time that my husband loaded our kids into the car and forgot the baby. Luckily I didn't forget
When I was little, my code name was "Luggage One" during our travels. :))
"uh- honey? Did we remember the kids this time?...no?...s**t."
Simplistic Light Switches In A Hotel
DND? There's a dungeon with dragons in this hotel room? ♡ Jokes aside, what is it actually?
I love the Dungeons and Dragons option - maybe it's flickering torchlight, lol
Load More Replies...The hotel chains are among the few fortunate ones who could afford surviving an almost no-guest period which lasted way longer than anyone could have expected. The implementation of vaccine passports also gives hope for the hotel industry.
“I think the industry certainly needs to develop a uniform digital health credential on testing,” Ballotti said. “That could make travel easier, that could make travel safer.”
The Hotel I'm Staying At Has A Monitor Lizard That Roams The Grounds And Swims In The Pool
It was thier home before the hotel knocked it over.
Load More Replies...they dont, not unless they are provoked, and are often kept as pets. they do have venom but it is completely harmless to humans
Load More Replies...This Hotel I’m Staying At Provides A Phone That You Can Take Out With You. It Has Unlimited Mobile Data As Well As Free Calls
I've seen more and more hotels provide these. They're incredibly useful.
Load More Replies...Same in Kyoto, Japan, the hotel gave us a smartphone with unlimited data and Google Map preinstalled, a very useful app for traveling in Japan :)
they probably do. They're also probably rather inexpensive to buy in bulk.
Load More Replies...My Hostel Has A Bed For Charging Your Mobile
im going to save this one for later. might make it sometime because lowkey that is the best idea ever.
Load More Replies...Phone screens have more germs than a toilet seat, so imagine how gross this is. (Not to ruin this, just saying)
Out Hotel Room Is Inside A Giant Aquarium With Sharks, Mantas And Stingrays Swimming About
Same I am afraid of sea creatures and the sea.
Load More Replies...That would be pretty expensive, and how could u sleep when u can watch that all night?
Load More Replies...Where is this?!? This would be my absolute favorite. Even better than sleeping overnight in the aquarium where ya have to use sleeping bags and inflatable mattresses.
Singapore, as usual when it comes to cool hotels.
Load More Replies...Ummmm.... I'd want to know exactly what hours of the day the aquarium cleaners enter to do their jobs. I'm betting those people have some stories to tell!!
The Pillows In My Hotel Are Labeled For Preferences
YOU ARE WRONG!! THEY SHOULD BE SUPER SQUISHY!!!
Load More Replies...This should be on ALL pillows . In shops in , well Everywhere
I sleep on hard and have a "cuddle cushion" which goes everywhere with me. The stuffing is old, doesn't fit together anymore and is just the right size that I can flip it over with me in my sleep when I turn over.
Load More Replies...My Hotel Had Exit Signs Near The Floor, Presumably For When You Are Crawling On The Floor To Avoid Smoke Inhalation During A Fire
You are completely right, that's why they're there. Oh, and for small to medium animals, armadillos, pangolins, honey badgers. Actually, probably not honey badgers, I mean when would you come across a honey badger in a hotel!
Same reason why planes have lights on the floor and the lights at the rows with exits are red
I have problems with balance and always look at the floor when I'm walking. I rarely see signs that are mounted high up. This would be a big help for me.
My Toilet In The Japanese Hotel I Stayed At. You Wash Your Hands And Reuse The Water For Your Next Flush
You can buy them in various countries. Over it lifetime it won't really save water/resources if you count how much it costs to make & transport to you (+remove old one). Tiny basin means muddy water (especially if you have kids!!) EVERYWHERE so far more water+ soap+ time spent on keeping this clean. All in all not justifiable in general.
Load More Replies...I actually have one of those in my bathroom! Very cold water, but other than that it's great!
I have one in our downstairs toilet... More to do with space than saving the planet though.
Load More Replies...Let's just hope that one day it doesn't glitch, and the toilet water goes to the faucet of the sink...
Great idea, but a bit awkward in design and layout; where the hell do you stand?
I see a problem arising for those who do not wash their hands...;)
My Hotel Room Came With A Rubber Ducky For The Bathtub
Let is quaaaaaack, let it quaaaaaack, can't quack it back any moreeeeee!
Load More Replies...I'm a travel agent and sometimes when hotel reps come to the office to promote information they also bring little promotional items (pens, branded notepads, etc..). We were pretty excited when a bunch of these ducks came to our office! Another notable one was the cute cow squeeze toys (like stress balls) from Millennium Hotels, each with a costume representing the city they were from. Millennium uses the chain code "MU" so...Mu = Moo = cows. :)
The Shower At My Hotel Has A Flow Meter To Know How Much Water You Use, Ice Cap Is Melting And Polar Bear Disappears If You Use Too Much
Sure, water is precious and we need to conserve it as much as we can. But the cynic in me says this has little to do with the environment and everything to do with the water bill.
That's the kind of environmentalism that people should have no argument against -- when saving money and saving the environment are the same.
Load More Replies...Shame water usage has nothing to do with ice caps melting and polar bears disappearing
Do you think it takes zero energy to to pipe and purify fresh water to you and heat it for your shower?
Load More Replies...I know people who would purposely make the bear 'disappear' as a sort of game.
Speaking as someone who has been an environmental activist since the 80s, this would make ME do that. . . I also don't like me told what to do very much
Load More Replies...I don't think that using water has an impact as much as using the vehicle that brought you to there. 1 hour.
This Hotel I Stayed At Had One Dark Washcloth To Prevent Makeup Stains
What a great idea! I'll never forget the B&B where I stayed in Ireland where the owner had put up signs explicitly stating that one was NOT to use the washcloths for removing makeup. Great; I'd brought nothing to remove it with. Sorry lady, I'm using your washcloths. This is the same place where I ran out of toilet paper at the worst possible time if you know what I mean, and in the middle of the night, and of COURSE there was not another roll in the room. She also griped at me for ordering pancakes for breakfast. "You should have ordered them last night!" (Uh, thanks for not telling me that yesterday.) She grudgingly made them, and they were the tastiest pancakes I've ever eaten in my life; not like the American ones at all.
We had those at a hotel we stayed at. Unfortunately we went to a KISS concert and my son wore KISS makeup and it was very white when he was done removing his makeup. I don't think they planned on that!! Harrison36...b469cb.jpg
The Alarm Clock In This Hotel Has Three Displays So You Can See The Time Without Moving While Lying In Either Of The Beds
I don't know about this one. That thing generates so much light I would have a hard time falling asleep.
The alarm clock I have at home actually projects the time onto the wall or ceiling. I love it.
The best feature is that "Display Dimmer" button on top, I often end up turning my clock around and push it against the wall because I'm pretty sensitive to light while trying to sleep and the bright numbers keep me awake.
I find though, these in hotels suck and doesn't dim as much as I'd like.

I bet any meeting would be 10 times more interesting in a bank vault XD
Would be a lot more interesting if you closed the door and said there was only so much air. I bet meetings would not drag then!
Load More Replies...Me neither. Even looking at the photo I feel uncomfortable as I suffer with claustrophobia.
Load More Replies...You realize that your company would be the villan in that context.
Load More Replies...I bet more than one fully grown adult felt like a super villain in there.
In my city, there is a hotel that turned their huge vault like this into a bar!
My Hotel Has A Marker To Point Towards Mecca
Great idea! More hotels should have this - kinda like many have a bible, also have an arrow towards Mecca!
Nice. Either give equal opportunities or nothing at all in my opinion.
Load More Replies...This is very helpful. But it begs the question, don’t those that pray to Mecca always carry a compass for this purpose? Sorry, I'm not being facetious, it's an actual proper question.
No we don't! Yes, there is many apps fir it now, but many of them wont work for android so its really helpful
Load More Replies...this is a muslum thing, right? what exactly is it? is this the direction you pray or something? just curious i like learning about othe cultures
Yes, Muslims always face towards Mecca when praying.
Load More Replies...yeah. How many people have run out of their room because...
Load More Replies...Hotel Door Signs: Do Not Disturb And Please Clean Room
When I read the heading I was like 'don't all hotels have these?' and then I scrolled down and I was like WAIT NO THEY DON'T AND I WISH THEY DID

In these times of denunciation of violence against women, I do not find the Please Clean Room sign in very good taste
This Little Sign Under The Bed In My Hotel Room That Lets You Know They’ve Cleaned Under There Too
Yes, I thought it should be on the mattress as well
Load More Replies...They couldn't of cleaned under there or they would of taken the sign!
I would simply write a little comment on the back of that card and check if the comment is still there when I leave
Or even better: Write a note for the next guests to please contact me if they read it. Wouldn't be surprised if I get mails for months.

The Elevator Load Limit Sign In My Hotel
The elevator can hold up to 1000kg, also the space in the elevator will somewhat comfortably suit 4 average size people. The x people or y kg sign is quite common in elevators.
4 persons is 1000kg?? are they all wearing Space Marine's Power Armor?

Stayed In A Boeing 747 Converted To Hostel At Arlanda Airport, Sweden
They do. they also have showers. You just pay a heck of a lot for the privilege
Load More Replies...The airport is only 42 metres above mean sea level- If only it were 1567.34 metres higher you'd be able to join the mile high club.
Gives the ones of flying with the elite? I hope they have a gentle plane engine sound running in the background.
Additional info: The cockpit is the honeymoon suit, or do you say bridal suite. English isn't my first language, but you get it.
This Hotel I’m Staying At Has The Shower Shelf Accessible From Both Inside As Well As Outside
I love it! Saves having to gather up everything as you leave the shower. I'm elderly and it's not safe for me to have my hands full when I step out. I also love the light inside the shower--when showers have curtains, it's often rather dark in there.
I think that is the towel which goes on the bathroom floor and they put it there for the user to easily identify it as such!
Load More Replies...this is smart, what if you got into the shower without knowing there was no shampoo/conditioner. This is helpful
My Hotel Room Bathroom Leaves A Section Of Mirror That Doesn’t Steam Up
Maybe because its expensive to do the whole thing.
Load More Replies...I have seen these before. It is annoying when shaving and the mirror keeps steaming up. I go to the bedroom mirror and see where i have mist certain areas.
Curious why they wouldn't make the entire mirror fog free... Perhaps too costly (to heat)?
The Hotel I Stayed In Has A Typewriter For Writing Reviews
I wonder if it has something to do with Hemingway since he lived in Key West
According to Wikipedia, Hemingway preferred a Royal Quiet de Luxe, and the typewriter in the picture is just such a machine. I can't tell if it's the same year's model he used though.
Load More Replies...Loved reading the comments on making a mistake. It is a lot easier to realize you hit wrong key on this old manual and lift your finger. Key will not travel all the way to paper! Electric key board you hit the key the letter is there!! wRITTEN BY AN OLD GUY ON A KEYBOARD..Dern caplock keys
Might be better though, if they had a computer and printer, I AM JUST SAYING
My Hotel Safe Has A Plug So You Can Charge Your Electronics While They Are Locked Away
Not trying to hate on this, but anyone that knows even a little bit about locks, security, and safes will tell you to never trust a hotel safe with anything at all. I love the idea behind this though!
To clarify what John C said, hotel in-room-safes usually have a security key of some sort that lets the hotel staff open it. otherwise, people who forget the code would never be able to get their stuff back, and the hotel would most likely be out a fairly expensive safe. that said, I have no problems trusting the hotel staff, and the only reason I would use them is to put items of importance someplace i won't forget where they are.
Load More Replies...That's a universal plug socket for US, UK, EU, or Asian devices.
I’m an idiot and would immediately forget the combination so this wouldn’t work for me lol
This Mirror At My Hotel Tells Guests The Current Weather Conditions
...or a cell phone. Windows are for old people. (I jest, I jest. but not really.)
Load More Replies...It's not the UK, there you'd have twenty versions of precipitation --- 'drizzle', 'sleet', ... --- plus 'fog' and 'mist' and 'a real peasouper' etc.
The Hand Towels In My Hotel Bathroom Were Folded Like A Shirt And Tie
pls dont downvote this, but i would feel so bad for ruining the lovely artwork when i have to use the towel...
I understand what you are saying. Some people on here can be so particular and stuck up for saying that. upvoted.
Load More Replies...That's nothing! I have tons of shirts that are folded just like "used" towels.
Always like to see the interesting creative towel 'wrapping'.. ads to that special care
This Hotel's Fancy Style Of Stacking Fruits In Water
And reeeeally labor intensive. I pity the poor person (or people, I hope) who has to stack all that fruit. Sheesh!
Load More Replies...Very beautiful and fancy however I would not want to be the one stacking those things in there. I'm a master chef and presentation is important but most enjoy the fruit in the water regardless if it's stacked. I give this person props though. I simply do not have the patience. They probably do yoga lol
How long would that take to refill? sorry im allergic to strawberries. can you take them out.
After I read your comment, I looked again n saw your "point of view" lol
Load More Replies...Wonderful I totally support this as well as tasting pleasant one could even snack on the fruits as they lower..I would anyhow..LOL

This is required for ADA rooms. This isn't a neat feature, This is the law.

This Hotel Descends Down The Side Of A Cliff, So The Elevator Floors Are In Negatives
The Braille is wrong. 1 through -3 is correct, but they left off the negative symbol for -4, -5, & -6. It's especially odd since the numbers look to be embossed anyway.

Ok,so let me ask you - is it just me, or do others also not trust condoms they don't buy themselves?
I don't think that anyone would bother to sabotage them or anything, but I've seen condoms at hotels that were way past their expiration date.
Load More Replies...Don’t know why this comment got downvoted, as I can confirm that this is true. I picked one up out of curiosity once, and of course instantly got charged, so had to explain to reception that curiosity had got the better of me and that I had picked it up without thinking, and they kindly refunded the charge.

Yeah I call BS on any hotel leaving this in a room. How many times has that vibrator been washed?
I hope this is a very clearly branded hotel so that you know to expect that sort of thing.... can you imagine taking your Mother or Granny on a weekend break and finding this in your room??! You've gotta hope it's at least in some kind of red light district so it's a least expected

I think I've been here, it's a Holiday Inn Express - I believe there actually was a real pool at the hotel as well, though.
Kids running down to the pool room in their bathing suits. Watch the disappointed faces
We Stayed At A Hotel With An Indoor Pool That Had An Outdoor Waterslide
I've been in one of these before (during wintertime in Wisconsin, I'll add) - it's a closed waterslide, meaning you don't really feel anything from outside. If it's cold outside, they likely have warmer water inside, too.
Load More Replies...Blue Harbor Resort in Wisconsin has an indoor waterpark with one of these. I've been there a few times... it's amazing.
Very common in England where there is no space and it's COLD
We had 1 at a hotel/indoor water park. Wasnt necessarily the cleanest park but still mad it closed. Living thru NE winters can be rough so the waterpark in Jan was a fun day
Different hotel, but the color and style reminds me of the Comfort Inn/Quality Inn in Cameron, MO which has a smaller slide.
This No Smoking Floor In A Hotel Has No Room 420
As everyone else already pointed out, 420 is a term associated with smoking marijuana, I think it started as a police code that people figured out and started using as slang or whatever? I might be wrong on that though

Found This At A Hotel I Was Working At. Kinda Cool That Hotels Are Being This Accommodating
Just like the pep hole, this is required by ADA regulations for all ADA rooms. Hotels are required to have a certain number of ADA rooms. Fun fact, they're allowed to rent the room to anyone who ask as long as there's no prior booking for it.
and they should be - imagine not being able to rent out a certain number of rooms just because there is no hearing impaired person requiring one at the moment.

This Hotel Near Me In New York Lit Up Their Empty Rooms In The Shape Of A Heart
How appropriate! That's The Standard in NYC. It's a 4 star hotel with enormous windows. The High Line Park runs past it and it's easy to see inside. The hotel is infamous for people having sex in the windows for the entertainment and shock of the park goers. It was a huge problem when the hotel opened. It's even featured in the movie Shame with Michael Fassbender.

This Hotel Uses Glass Straws

If you buy sets of straws made of glass or metall you often also get tiny brushes for cleaning.
Load More Replies...How do they clean them; hard to clean inside. Dangerous in the times of Corona
If you buy reusuable straws (silicone, metal, glass, etc), especially when you buy in bulk, they usually give you straw brush cleaners. You can also get them on their own from amazon. Personally, I think glass would be easier to clean then metal or silicone, as they are see-through.

so.... they made a key card in the form of a key.... why not just use a key?!
For the advantages of re-programmable key cards (can activate/deactivate individually, easier handling access, and they are not forever bound to a single room) while keeping with the nostalgia of using "old fashion" keys.

My Hotel Room Has A Heated Toilet Seat Among Other Things
I'm in the UK but worked out in Japan for a short while. The heated 'western' style toilets were amazing but not understanding the written language (other than to recognise my bus stop) led to many interesting episodes, as there is music as well as other settings. It was a relief to come back to the UK and know how to use a toilet and wash my hands without having to figure out the instructions.

You certainly can reuse them. They are meant more as a service for people who've forgotten theirs.

You would prefer an enema where the water pressure is so high it gets in by itself?
Load More Replies...With so many options, this would take several "goes" (excuse pun) before you could work out the program that you like the best!
For women when it's that time of the month, I think. Or maybe just washing their front.
