big companys starting to get ecofriendly
Submitted by Yoz on Mon, 08/04/2008 - 8:35am.
when i went on my vacation this year i stayed at a few major hotels accross the northeast and what i noticed was that they only clean the sheets every3 days to keep water clean because like those big hotels (maryott and hilton) have hundreds of guests and if they cleaned the cheets and pillows and everything else everyday they would have a HUGE carbon footprint so i am glad that those big companies statred to get eco-friendly »

It is pretty great! A lot of the hotels I've been staying in also ask that you leave used towels on the racks if you want to use them again. I've always been skeptical of that, though, since they clean things us and I never know if they just give me clean towels on principle :(
