2) Why You Should Always Put Your Luggage in the Hotel Room’s Bathtub

Protection from Spills
Accidents happen—drinks tip over, toiletries leak, kids make messes. The tub keeps your luggage out of harm’s way.

My Check-In Routine

  1. Put luggage (zipped shut) in the tub.
  2. Inspect the bed, headboard, curtains, and nearby furniture for bugs.
  3. Only unpack once the room checks out.

Signs of Bedbugs: Dark spots on sheets, tiny rust-colored stains, shed skins, a sweet/musty odor, or reddish-brown bugs about apple-seed size.

Extra Tips:

  • Don’t place luggage on beds or upholstered furniture.
  • Use a flashlight to inspect dark areas.
  • Keep luggage closed when not in use.
  • Wash and dry clothes on high heat after trips.

Bottom Line
It may feel odd, but placing your luggage in the tub is a quick, easy way to avoid pests, dirt, and spills. Once you try it, you might never check into a hotel any other way.
