I love staying in hotels. The beds are big and the sheets are crisp and cool. You can watch TV guilt-free because you’ve paid a bunch of money not to have to cook your own dinner or clean.
Sometimes, though, it’s not quite heaven. And that one little thing can bug you until you’re not sleeping as well or feeling as comfortable as when you are at home.
When that happens, you need a hack.
Twitter’s got you.
Recently, venture capitalist Rick Klau reposted a hack he said he originally found on Twitter.
I don't remember who posted this on Twitter a few years ago, but whoever you are: you have improved every night I've spent in a hotel since. pic.twitter.com/NpuuumqHV8

His smart and handy re-tip inspired others to post their favorite hotel room hacks. Like this great thread about the lack of convenient electric outlets in rooms.

That description was hilariously on point

Others had hacks you didn’t know you needed until now.
I wrap my hotel pillow with a hotel towel. Cause I sleep on my stomach and the thought of breathing in previous hotel visitor's breath or dribble from the pillow frightens me to the core.

Hotel rooms can be dirty so these hacks are great.
My must: I use the plastic baggie from the ice bucket to wrap around the
remote. Then I don’t have to worry about who last touched what.

Do you know anyone who uses a shower cap to cover their hair in the shower?
Who uses shower caps in the shower?!?! I take them home and use them to cover bowls of food in the fridge. Or I use them to wrap around my shoes in my suitcase.

Even Elon Musk took some notes.
Great list of hotel hacks in this thread!

Some of these hacks deserve five stars.
Brilliant.
My favorite hotel hack: Your ironing board is an adjustable height desk. Since the chairs are never the right height, use the ironing board for long hotel work.

This hack will have you crawling on the floor. Really.
I always bring a 10' LAN cable and plug my laptop directly into the wireless router.

The list of brilliant hacks is long, but worth taking a look at for next time you’re planning a trip. They will keep you comfy and clean while you finally get that great night’s sleep away from home.
