#1
Spend an hour + in the shower. That endless hot water is magic.
#2
Call Room service.
At home my wife would not be impressed if I called her phone and asked her to bring me a burger in bed.
#3
Inspect the sheets for bugs before using them.
#4
Clean up for the maid….since I don’t have one at home. Make sure there’s no trash left out on the desk/night stands, bathroom floor. I gather all the used rags, towels, bath mat into one pile by the door. I’m adamant about making sure I do not leave any room I stay in trashed out. It’s the maid’s job to do her job, not to clean up after grown as mfers who deliberately left a disrespectful as mess.
#5
Yank all the sheets out from being tucked under the bed.
#6
Look for hidden cameras
#7
Put a Do Not Disturb sign on the door. Although, maybe I should do that at home too.
#8
Bring a pop up pack of Clorox wipes and wipe down every surface I might touch.
#9
Wear flip flops if I take my shoes off
#10
Take soaps
#11
Stand naked in the window and look down at whatever city I’m in lol
#12
Living out of a suitcase
#13
I never wear a robe normally. When I stay in hotels, I’m not sure what it is, but I love to clean myself up and wear one of those robes provided.
Just makes me feel extra relaxed for some reason.
#14
check bibles for money
#15
Watch border security
#16
Blackout showers
If the bathroom setup allows (no light sources) I put a towel at the bottom of the door (to block any light creeping in) Familiarize yourself where everything is (towel, lights when you need it) and take a shower in complete blackout conditions.
It’s almost like a sensory deprivation tank
#17
Set the thermostat to either frosty or balmy.
#18
Eat in bed aha
#19
Toss wet towels in the corner of the bathroom.
#20
Complain when the sheets are dirty
#21
I travel a lot for work. Whenever I do I always check in as early as possible, hang the DND tag on the door, set the thermostat (in summer 68°, in winter 78°), then head to the office. At the end of the day I’ll grab a bottle of wine on my way back, strip as soon as I get to my room, and lay around naked all night playing video games and drinking my wine. I also have a tendency to stay up ridiculously late sometimes and end up running on an hour or two of sleep the next day.
#22
Late night.
In my jams and best socks.
Check if the hallway is clear and there’s nobody around or could be around.
Calmly walk to the end of said hallway…then I BOOK IT DOWN THAT B***H as fast as I can! I’m talm bout FLYING!
You can’t bottle that type of joy.
#23
The first thing I do when I walk into a hotel room is jump and belly flop onto the bed. I’d never do that on my own bed
#24
Watch cable TV.
I don’t care to pay for it at home so it’s new and exciting to me.
#25
Pay $15 for a beer.
