Do hotels/motels/ routinely wash comforters?

Don't we all hope so! Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the cleaning crew. I have a friend who always takes her own sheets with her. I highly doubt they wash comforters more than once or twice a week.

I cannot answer for all brands of hotels/motels. But my boyfriend used to work for a Hilton property and they washed theirs after each guest. So if you stayed there 4 days, you would get fresh sheets every day, but not a fresh comforter. That comforter would be changed before the next guest in that room however. I have heard rumors that cheap places do not wash comforters very often, like once a month, but I have no proof.

I have worked in a Super 8, Econo Lodge, and a Cranberry Suites /Lodge. I was a housekeeper and I washed the linens. We washed comforters every couple months unless the got really dirty.

I have no experience, but I would say "no" because thier are some hotels that say they would like to be "eco-friendly" and they would like it if they could put off cleaning your towels unless you really need them cleaned.

Not every time they are used and from what I have heard they rarely do unless they have a huge big obvious noticeable stain on them. Do not ever ever use them as they have so many nasty germs, sperm and who knows what on them.... eeewwww yuck!

The one I worked at did once a week, unless it obviously needed it more.
