2) Wash them sepeartely or with whites.

Two measly points for 4 answers - yeesh.

Answer 2

1. Every other day 2. Colors together. Some bright colors bleed-read the labels for washing. 3.Fabric softener-either in the wash and/or dryer. 4. Depends on how much you use the towel. Hang the towel to air dry if you have to reuse them. Some hotels charge extra for additional towels, some don't.

Answer 3

1) I clean my toilet nearly everyday. I have a weak stomach and that is one thing that just gags me.
2) I think pastels are better by themselves, but if your bright colors don't fade, then they should be fine together.
3) I use liquid fabric softner in my wash cycle. That helps alot!!
4) IF I reuse them, it's only once and only mine. Sometimes at home if I hang up a towel I used, my husband will use it the next morning and that drives me nuts. But I prefer to wash them after each use. When we're at a hotel I never reuse them.

Answer 4

Daily

Pastel colours can be washed with whites if they haven't been dyed at home & in warm water (not hot).

The only real way to keep towels fluffy is to put them in the dryer, but I put everything on the clothesline.

It's fine to reuse your bath towel, you're clean when you come out of the shower. We reuse ours a couple times, unless they get soaking wet & then I wash them again.

Answer 5

eeeeeewww!!!!!!!!!! what hotel(s) suggested THAT ?!!!!!!!

wash your bath towel after each use ! Don't re-use it unless you want to ultimately develop some infections, skin fungus, protozoa, acne bacteria, dandruff fungus spores, etc! You can't see these things! they're microscopic, and even if they didn't infect or affect you, they may harm the next person who is more sensitive or susceptible to developing problems from these!
Don't make other people use your used towel! Thats SO gross!
The next person will dry their hands and face with the used towel you wiped your whole body and butt and feet. YUKK!!!!!!!!

You should report that hotel to your governments health department or something ASAP.

Answer 6

you should clean your toilet when it becomes dirty and use your towels until they are unable to dry while hanging
