Disturbing travel thought for the day...

"Unlike the sheets, hotels and motels do not change or launder the bedspreads on a daily basis. It's actually more of an annual thing. And if you don't think there are various bodily fluids lingering in those coverings, let us remind you that when the bedspread from an internationally ranked five-star hotel was introduced as evidence in boxer Mike Tyson's rape trial, investigators found it coated with the DNA of so many different men that it took some significant time to finally isolate traces of Tyson's contribution."

...sleep well!

This is why I never pull up the covers and only use the sheets! Of course we're always hot anyways.

I don't use the bedspreads either. I've always assumed they don't wash them. Eeww.
