2. Take off the comforter.
The hotel maids might change and clean the sheets regularly, but that doesn’t apply to the comforter or duvet. It’s risky to assume that these things are even clean, so if you travel often, it would be a good idea to carry your own blanket with you. Otherwise, you can just use the sheet under the hotel comforter and take off the comforter completely.
3. Use sanitizing wipes to clean up things that were most definitely touched a lot (like door knobs or the TV remote).
Another important step is to quickly sanitize the most common things everybody touches in the room, like the door knobs, the wardrobe handles, and the TV remote. A study showed that TV remotes are on the list of the dirtiest items found in hotel rooms. Try to use anti-bacterial wipes to clean up those surfaces or use some alcohol on a tissue.
