Staying in a hotel can feel exciting but unfamiliar. A simple tip to improve comfort and safety is leaving the bathroom light on while you sleep.
Why it helps:
Keeps pests away: Light deters insects and rodents that prefer darkness.
Guides you safely: If you wake at night, a soft glow helps avoid tripping or bumping into furniture.
Creates comfort: A dim bathroom light offers a cozy ambience, easing sleep in an unfamiliar room.
Deters intruders: Light under the door can suggest someone is awake, adding a layer of security.
Tips:
If the light’s too bright, partially close the door or place a towel under it.
Most hotel bathroom lights are energy-efficient, so power use is minimal.
Combine with other safety habits—lock doors, set alarms, and keep shoes nearby.
This small step can make your stay safer and more comfortable. Next time you’re in a hotel, flip that bathroom light on—it’s an easy way to feel more secure and relaxed.
