The cost range of my hotels usually means that those hangars have loops at the top not hooks, and can’t be removed from the closet
Even the ones with hoops instead of hooks can be removed (in my experience, anyway). Super awkward otherwise.
I believe I did stay at one property where they weighed cost of the inconvenience as lower than the cost of the theft - completely locked to the rod
Bring a set of tools and take the hangers and the rod too, just for spite
Just one simple trick. Hotel owners hate this.
Usually in a place that classy it’s so you can’t hang yourself.
It worked
This has been my experience as well
Keep a couple clothespins/binder clips in your bag?
I don’t always carry my BDSM kit with me though. Sometimes a business trip is only a business trip.
You’re clearly in the wrong field, then ;p
Depends on your business :)

I’ve also always thought that was a cost/theft issue, but I wonder if its also to prevent people from trying to use the hook-type hangers from hanging things from fire suppression sprinkler heads.
Good point. I recently stayed somewhere with a bolted sign by the sprinkler heads that said not to hang anything on them, lol. Makes me think it happens…a lot.
There’s people who steal the curtains from a hotel they paid for?
Also at hotels while traveling … ask for a better room or any upgrades. Worst thing anyone will say is no.
But if you’re lucky to run into a manager in a good mood or even the owner, they’ll give you something just for asking.
I don’t think my motel 6 has a better room than 2 full size beds and free HBO
They might at least not put you next to the hourly rentals
And miss out on the free entertainment?
But then you have a longer walk
Pay-per-view comp?
I already paid $5 to turn the cable on.
I am not really sure what’s going on in this picture
They used a hanger to keep closed those useless curtains that are in a lot of hotels.
Your mom, Ronald McDonald, and a barrel of tartar sauce are just out of frame. I’d look away son.
Please, everyone knows Ronald uses Big Mac Sauce
It’s just catsup and mayo.
I’m traveling right now and will do this when I get back to my hotel.
I travel with a couple of binder clips for exactly this reason. I never thought of using a hanger with clips though!
The best hotel room hack I know lets you unlock the AC so you can get some actual cool air.
Wow, saving this video. Thanks!

Done this many times. It helps so much when you don’t need to be up at the crack of dawn.
I’ve never needed this. But I feel like those for witch this is mind blowing could also have paid a couple of bucks for a clamp from the hardware store and put that in their luggage.
why do that when those are there for free and hardly used? I guess it is better to have your own clamps, in case the particular hotel you might be staying at has different types of hangers that don’t have clamps.
Yes everyone remembers the niche circumstance-specific irritation when they get back home, especially those who hotel infrequently.
This is a cool tip, and I appreciate it.
Oh yeah I appreciate the creativity and the lateral thinking that went into this.
I’ve never seen the problem that causes this as I’m insensitive to light and can sleep with any lighting condition.
But if someone was too experience this frequently enough to come up with this solution, there would be a way more straight forward (and consistent) way to solve this.
Or just a clothes peg.
You carry clothes pegs?
Sure, it’s legal in my country.
For now, sure.
Tbh I don’t think I’ve ever seen one in real life. I just use a dryer.
Great tip! My biggest issue is usually that the curtains themselves barely block any light. Light leaking between them tends to be a secondary issue.
Yo, isn’t that from Amazon’s Reacher? S1E?
I don’t know what’s going on in the image.
They’re using the clip on a hangar to hold some curtains shut, I think? I guess a certain type of curtains hotels like to buy has a tendency to not quite close the gap completely?
Or maybe carry a couple chipclips
why? they’re free at the hotel closet
All of them?
This is just fucking simple and brilliant.
And here I usually leave the curtains wide open unless there’s a flashing light.
Ah, an exhibitionist, you do you
