Share on:

Hotel rooms can harbor more bacteria than permitted in hospitals. According to studies, there are specific areas that require special attention.

According to a study by the University of Houston, hotel rooms have up to 10 times more bacteria than allowed in hospitals. Hotel staff often only have 30 minutes to clean each room, resulting in the neglect of important areas.

The 5 dirtiest spots in hotel rooms:

  1. Decorations: Decorative pillows and comforters are rarely washed.
  2. Frequently touched surfaces: Switches, remote controls, and telephones are full of germs.
  3. Bathtubs: Can harbor up to 40 times more bacteria than a toilet seat.
  4. Unseen spots: Ceiling fans, curtains, and shower heads are often neglected.
  5. Glasses and ice buckets: Cleaning staff often simply wash the glassware instead of replacing it.

Experts recommend caution and extra cleaning of the above areas to avoid germs and bacteria.
