What's the cloth on the hotel bed for?

In addition to decorating the bed, the cloth on the hotel bed has two major functions. One is to prevent the quilt from falling on the ground when sleeping, so as not to dirty the bed. The other is to put food and other things on the cloth, so that even if it is dirty, you can only wash the cloth without letting the guests get out of bed to eat. At the same time, put an extra piece of cloth to keep warm.

The long strip of cloth on the hotel bed is called bed tail cloth, and some people call it bed flag or bed tail pad. In the north, it is often called bed end towel. Generally speaking, in order to match the overall style and quality of the room, the bed flag will choose a pattern that is coordinated with tablecloths and curtains, so that it will look very beautiful when spread on the bed, and it can also protect mattresses and sheets.

Other items on the hotel bed:

Putting four pillows on the hotel bed is actually to make the guests sleep more comfortably, because if there is not one guest but two people in the hotel, four pillows can make the guests watch TV on their backs. Some people like to sleep with a higher pillow, so it is normal to sleep with two pillows. Of course, two people need four pillows.

The cylindrical pillow on the hotel bed is used to lean against the waist. Some people use it to pad their legs, or guests with cervical vertebra problems can also put it under their necks for support, basically to make them sleep more comfortably.
