Whenever I stay at a hotel, the very first thing I do is peel off bed comforters and stow then in the closet since I don’t ever feel like they are fully cleaned between stays given their thickness. I pretty much always just use provided pillows and sheets. I don’t think I’d be comfortable using the sleeping bags for this reason. This may be my own germophobia, but those sleeping bags look like they would be hard to consistently keep clean. At least they are white and guests can better determine if they have been fully washed.
I bring my own blanket when traveling for the same reason. I love to blast the ac and I don’t trust those comforters. Even the sheets I check first after watching an investigation (long time ago) where the sheets were NOT changed between guests. The reporters had booked the same room for 2 “different” guests and used something to write on the sheets that you could see under the black light. Almost every single hotel they did this at failed to change the sheets between them 😳 know I also strip my beds before checking out and either leave the pile at the end of the bed or dump them in the tub. I’ve been traumatized lol. (If I find anything in the bed at check in it gets stripped down and I request new sheets to put on myself)
I'm surprised both positively and negatively. First, I think the idea of it being a sleeping bag is ADORABLY on theme for the resort, it makes perfect sense, I think it's ultimately great. Especially given that you've shown it's clearly large enough for anyone who fits in those bunk beds. BUT - why don't they literally include that in some of the advertising? Point it out as an obvious nod to theming? I think that's a missed opportunity both for clear disclosure so people know what they're getting into, and a totally unique point for the cabins!
My thoughts exactly! I honestly am not sure what the thought process is 'cause I think it would be an easy thing to point out, but also would be REALLY useful to note so that guests can prepare themselves and not end up disappointed. To me, it feels like the result of a trend towards "reviews" and information that isn't based on actual use/understanding of the product. Does that make sense? I hope so. . . . 😅
A little bit of a late comment from me, while I think the sleeping bags are cute, I and my family tend to run hot. I would absolutely want sheets. Even when I would go camping as a kid I would bring a sheet, because at some point in the night a sleeping bag would get too hot. While it’s not a big deal to bring a sheet if you wanted one, it just seems like one more thing to remember that you need to bring with you. Also how often are they actually being laundered? hopefully every time, but I would definitely have concerns.
100%! Especially in that room as it is. It's really small and sleeping 4 in there qith a small ac unit [which was finicky during our stay] is going to get hot anyway. 🔥 I'd imagine they get cleaned qith the linens, which is between every 4 to 8 days. . . .
So, if you don't call it a sleeping bag, would it be a Kat-wrap? or perhaps a Russ-taco? With you being 5.7, what does that look like with Russ in it. Kidding aside, that is really good information. My teen is 5.8 so that wouldn't really work, though he would definitely try.
Pesronally, I prefer Kat-wrap-supreme! 😂 I don't have any pictures of the Russ-taco, but he did fall asleep on the couch curled up on the sleeping bag and thought it was great. He's 5'10. Honestly, I think it's a pretty good size. It's around the same size as the Cabela's Mountain Trapper bag that I used when I was doing a lot of camping. I knew a few guys over 6' that got by just fine with that one. . . I'm sure this would do the job too. Not the most comfortable option, but I'm confident sayign that it would be ok.
