Why does the hotel put a piece of cloth on the bed (see photo)?

In fact, the name of this cloth is "bed end pad". For more than 90% of the guests, the cushion at the end of the bed has no effect. Everyone just puts this cloth on the table or stool after entering the hotel. However, for hotel staff, the function of the bed end pad is very important. It has two functions.

First, it plays a cleaning role.

The first function of the bed end pad is to facilitate the cleaning of the staff. We usually go on business or stay in a hotel, and when we get back to the hotel, we are exhausted, so we usually fall asleep after we come back. At this time, I believe that no one will take off their clothes and shoes before lying on the bed, so the function of this mat is to prevent everyone's shoes from directly staining the bedding.

Secondly, it plays a neat role.

In addition to cleaning, the other is to play a neat role. We know that the fabrics commonly used in hotels are delicate, so they all choose very soft materials, but it is easy to wrinkle the mattress. After using this kind of foot pad, put the two ends of the foot pad under the mattress before going to bed, which can not only prevent the sheets from wrinkling, but also prevent some people who sleep dishonestly from sleeping on the floor.
