Also at hotels while traveling .... ask for a better room or any upgrades. Worst thing anyone will say is no.
But if you're lucky to run into a manager in a good mood or even the owner, they'll give you something just for asking.

I travel with a couple of binder clips for exactly this reason. I never thought of using a hanger with clips though!

The best hotel room hack I know lets you unlock the AC so you can get some actual cool air.

Wow, saving this video. Thanks!

Done this many times. It helps so much when you don't need to be up at the crack of dawn.

Great tip! My biggest issue is usually that the curtains themselves barely block any light. Light leaking between them tends to be a secondary issue.

Yo, isn't that from Amazon's Reacher? S1E?

I don't know what's going on in the image.

They're using the clip on a hangar to hold some curtains shut, I think? I guess a certain type of curtains hotels like to buy has a tendency to not quite close the gap completely?

This is just fucking simple and brilliant.

And here I usually leave the curtains wide open unless there’s a flashing light.

Ah, an exhibitionist, you do you

The cost range of my hotels usually means that those hangars have loops at the top not hooks, and can't be removed from the closet
Even the ones with hoops instead of hooks can be removed (in my experience, anyway). Super awkward otherwise.
I believe I did stay at one property where they weighed cost of the inconvenience as lower than the cost of the theft - completely locked to the rod
This has been my experience as well
Keep a couple clothespins/binder clips in your bag?
I don't always carry my BDSM kit with me though. Sometimes a business trip is only a business trip.
Just bring a pair of side cutters with you. Snip snip and you’re good to go!
I'd never go to a hotel without my leatherman with me.
Much simpler than bringing a clothespin. Or binder clip.
I've also always thought that was a cost/theft issue, but I wonder if its also to prevent people from trying to use the hook-type hangers from hanging things from fire suppression sprinkler heads.
Good point. I recently stayed somewhere with a bolted sign by the sprinkler heads that said not to hang anything on them, lol. Makes me think it happens...a lot.
There's people who steal the curtains from a hotel they paid for?
