My hotels rarely have toothpaste. Do you have to ask? I'm at an extremely nice hotel in Mexico City right now and they have expensive looking shampoo, soap, oxygen that is supposed to be sprayed on your fact to counteract the effects of pollution and the reduced oxygen supply of Mexico City, etc. But no toothpaste.

For the people who are worried about grease, the stuff I use dries rather quickly. Maybe hair gel is not the right name. It is a gelatinous liquid. I spray it on to my hand, rub it in may hair, and soon my hair is held in place (somewhat).

I unfortunately don't stay in the same place that often. I go to the Hague frequently but the main hotel I stay in can be full and I have stayed in 3 hotels in the Hague this year. I have probably stayed in 4 or 5 hotels in London. Plus, I've been in lots of other place (Maryland, NY, two hotels in Malaysia, Paris, Sydney, Melbourne, ...) So, I can't leave stuff with any confidence.
