Survival – Personal Edition

Let’s say you’re going on a business trip. Except your cheap ass company has booked you into a cheap ass hotel. Sure, that’s better than a motel, but still. Anyway, here’s some tips to endure that cheap ass hotel.

• On check-in ask for a room in a quiet location. That means the room shouldn’t be near elevators, ice machines, vending machines, the parking lot, or the noisy bar. Also, try to get a room at the end of a hall where there’s less foot traffic.
• Once you get to your room, don’t unpack yet. First go around and make sure everything works. Check heating/air conditioning depending on the season. Check all lights, the television, and the water pressure in the shower. If anything is not up to par, ask for a different room.
• Remove the bedspread and make sure the sheets are clean. The bedspread and sheets are also probably really thin, so be prepared to use the room towels for extra warmth. Call the front desk for extra towels if needed.
• Clip the curtains closed. When closed there is going to be a gap that lets in too much light. Use pins, tape, binder clips, or needles from a sewing kit to secure them. Also, carry a sleep mask for extreme situations.
• Check the mattress firmness. If it’s too soft, place in on the floor for the extra support.
• Check the clock in the room. Make sure the alarm is not set for some stupid early time, or set at all really. Use your cell phone for an alarm if needed. Do not rely on wake-up service as it can be unreliable at these cheap ass hotels.
• Plan your morning shower. Some cheap ass hotels will run out of hot water sometime between 7am and 9am, so be ready to shower before or after that rush hour window.
• Travel with two small rubber doorstops. Wedge them under the door to your room and under the door to the adjacent room.
• Make sure to bring your own snacks and beverages. There’s no guarantee that cheap ass hotel will have anything available for you.

Now, go forth, and kick some ass doing business so you can demand better accommodations on the next trip.
