Sometime you have also been to a hotel. Everything in the room looks clean and beautiful, but behind this cleanliness hides a deep state. Some items in the room are never washed, which are used by every guest. Recently, a person disclosed about these things on social media and advised people not to forget and touch them!
You arrive at a hotel, check-in, the room looks perfectly clean and beautifully decorated from the outside, but have you ever thought how much dirt can be hidden behind this glitter? Recently a former hotel employee Reddit told a scary truth related to the cleanliness of the hotel room, which people were shocked to know. The employee revealed that top blankets or decorative covers (top blankets or throws) found on hotel beds are not washed every time. “Don’t get too close to these top blankets and don’t get them dirty, because they are not washed after every guest,” he warned.
These things are not washed
Many guests remove these blankets before bed, but still sit on them, store their belongings, or use them as if they were clean. This is a big mistake, because these covers bear the marks of countless people’s touches and dust, and remain unclean for weeks or months. Indeed, in the hotel industry, such covers and decorative runners are called “soft goods”, which are classified as “non-barrier”.
This means they do not come into direct contact with the body, so there is no legal requirement to wash them daily. The rules apply only to “barrier linens”—such as sheets, pillowcases and towels—that must be changed after each guest, but cleaners often ignore these rules to save time. One Reddit user wrote, “I’ve worked in housekeeping at four different hotels. We were always told to change all the sheets and bedding after each guest, but many people left things behind to finish the job quickly.”
