Hotel Amenities

When i first started traveling, I look forward to see which hotels have what kind of bathroom amenities and in fact, I sometimes bring them home for my next trip to the beach or even camping. But as the years go by and i became a more season traveler and staying even longer in different countries, I bring my own shampoo, moisturizer and soap - why? because nothing beats the right stuff for your own skin type. Do I find it a hassle? Nah..! i pretty much pride myself for being a season traveler, so it’s great to be different from your regular vacationer.
So who does take hotel amenties home? or worst - some even take the bathrobes and iron home with them. Yes! working in the hotel industry for this long, you’ve seen just about everything - I have someone who tried to bring the consoles supplied free for the guest home. One even brought the fax machine home. I don’t think the housekeeper mind that you bring home those bathroom amenities or the coffee or hot chocolate home but if during check out and they found a missing .. TV .. then of course you will be charged on your credit card for the missing item - be it a bathrobe or even a towel. Afterall, all these cost the hotel money eh. So be careful when you next take something from the hotel - you may be caught stealing and you may get charged for it.
