I keep a "Dreamsack" in my travel bag and use it when the hotel sheets cause an allergic reation. My "Dreamack" weighs almost nothing and occupies very little room in my bag. I've even used it on overnight flights.

I sometimes travel with my mother and on a few occassions, the only room we could get would have only one king or queen bed. The "Dreamsack" allows us to share a bed but not share the covers (this may be TMI).

Sweet....I've never really thought much about it. I use what they give me and don't spend much time worrying about it.

After a long run I've been know to strip down (pre shower) and lay on the bedspread (until I cool off and shower).....

And after all these years I've never had a problem (I also don't put down the paper toilet seat and have never heard of anyone getting anything from sitting down)

No travel sheets, but I can't live without this travel pillow from the Down Factory. Stuffs into its own attached sleeve and fits neatly into a roll-aboard.

No, I'm not a teenage girl hugging her pink pillow, but this absoultly beats the foam rubber slabs found in most hotels. This down travel pillow really sweetens my 100 hotel night a year.

And lots of places still have those vile bedspreads.
But you can take the bedspread off. The sheets are washed in hot water with tons of bleach. They're plenty clean.

Exactly! I do take the bedspread off and indeed I'm not one who brings their own sheets -- I figure between the hot water & the bleach I'm fine -- I just try not to touch the spread or blanket, as they do gross me out.
