I've been a housekeeper for about five years now and Have worked at about 3 different hotels in that time. the main reason why the sheets are tucked so tightly is so that the bed can look neat, wrinkle-free and presentable.
Same. The sheets are tucked tight because we’ve been told to do it that way lol
(Also, maid announcement, if you don’t want your bed re tucked during room service, leave a note. Some guests will “make” their bed the way they like, with the sheets pulled loose, but unless specifically told otherwise, we are instructed to do the hospital tuck even during a daily service. Conversely, if you leave a laptop on the bed, it may not get made, since staff is often told NEVER to touch a laptop or iPad and to leave the bed alone if there are breakable electronics. But that rule isn’t universal.)
I’ve always wanted to know this but never thought about it
I'm pretty sure that's the point of this whole channel
Mee too
Same here bud
ha
I've never even noticed, and I've slept on hotels several times. If the sheets are too tight I just loosen them myself
I love it when the sheets are super tight, it makes me feel like a little swaddled baby not having to care about things.

Hotels are just following your parents' advice: Sleep tight so the bed bugs won't bite.

In the hotel I worked at we didn’t have folding machines, and we do have fitted sheets. Hotels mainly do it for looks, it looks neater. If it’s not pulled right it looks wrinkly.
Right, we have fitted sheets and no folding machine. Also 168 rooms. 😬. This video is somewhat accurate.
This video is great mostly because in the intro we can imagine how would it be to travel again, since we will only be able to do that again in indetermined time
I travel a lot so this is indeed kinda sad... luckly I am also a gamer so on the other hand I can easily entertain myself! H
Oof.
Almost forgot this for a few minutes 😅
Hi
I am a hotel night manager and I just got laid off. I might make math videos and hunt for a data analyst job.
Mathgasm idk
As a former hotel manager, I can tell you that the fitted sheet covering the matress is cut to shape for that matress. It's meant to fit snug, so the fitted sheet won't pop off while you sleep. The flat sheet atop the fitted sheet is supposed to be pulled tight and tucked using hospital corners. This is for aesthetic. A stain-free, white, flat sheet that a person can clearly see without wrinkling. The bed or beds in a standard hotel room is the focal point of the room. The better the bed is made, the happier the guest is.
If you think hotel sheets pulled tight on a hotel bed is weird, you should watch housekeeping when they fold the fitted sheets. It's been at least a decade since I last worked as hotel management and I still amaze my friends when they catch me folding a fitted sheet. Granted, I've gotten a bit lazy about it over the years, but I still fold it. Pretty much everyone else that I know just rolls it up and tosses it into a corner.
I worked in hotels and yeah people act like fitted sheets are just the hardest thing to fold. But my coworker and I always folded them faster than regular sheets, the corners make them so much more manageable.
Hotels do use fitted sheets though, I’ve folded a lot of them in 2019. In fact I’ve been in the hotel business for 3 years and they’ve always used them
My highschool had nursing training where we learnt how to tuck in the sheets like a hotel or hospital bed it's pretty cool to know how much effect it actually has
…
fascinating how the answers to these questions take atleast 10 minutes to explain.
Ye thats so annoying
Gotta get those ads on the video
Ejay vgl if you don’t like it then don’t watch what are you asking for a 2 second video on how it works

My mom was a housekeeper at a hospital and she taught me how to do “hospital corners” but we never knew there was a name for it xD
Yup, one of the first thing you learn in nursing is bedmaking and handwashing
I worked in a hospital. I still don’t know the hospital corners thing.
My dad was in the army. We had to bounce a quarter off the bed
@Dean Gullberry yeah, we called them "military corners"
@Dean Gullberry like.. 45 degrees, or something?
I love that they are tucked in so tight! It feels so cozy. I always try and get into the sheets with the least amount of movement.
That's what I love about this TH-cam Channel. They talk and do research on everything!! I love to learn lol
We don’t need to worry about hotels most of them aren’t available at the time due to COVID-19
Shrek and yet here i am sitting at the front desk of my NYC hotel at 3:35am watching this 😩
Nice
@@Prof.BiggusChungus same not long got off of my night shift hahaha
Nope. That's not true. I've been staying in the hotel for these days cause I'm quarantined, due to COVID-19.

eh im not a meme expert but ye
Re
Hotel- closed
I’ve worked in hotels and I can definitely tell you we used fitted sheets. The reason they’re so tight is for hygiene and to prevent wrinkles
Working in housekeeping, I can attest to this being true about the comforters and the bed scarves. We are also scrutinized on how tightly we tuck the beds and how full the toilet paper roll is. And to note it only takes two seconds to triangle fold the toilet paper. Aldo the only fitted non white sheets that my hotel are for roll away beds.

@@ReeLesTReaLisT you caught my typo!
Kinda ironic that this guy’s taking a vacation in this time
That's not ironic, but ok.
Da Birdie he’s talking about the coronavirus
@@BboyStampede I know what they're talking about. It still isn't ironic
I mean not how ironic is used I guess, but it is funny
It’s funny how he said that hotels have automatic washing machines then shows the picture of 2 women
what else are women for?
aside from being amazing people... 😂
RandomLife here is a man of true culture
Wait they’re female washing machines
you need people to put the sheets and towels in the machine !!
Rohan Purohit you have a lot to learn my friend
I love how tucked in the sheets are, its so snug
YESS
Most awesome vid!!!!!!
I helped my mom who is a house keeper and she did all of this also she gave me all the tips
Pretty cool
same also hairs .... hairs everywhere
I can tell just by your username...jk
Lol. My parents owned a small motel, and I remember my mom being dead serious about the corners. I remember as a kid I actually thought it was pretty cool
All of the tips, you greedy man, hoarding all of the tips.
As a career Night Auditor at five hotel franchises, I can tell you that all of the ones I have ever worked at use fitted sheets on the mattress.
If there are franchises that use only flat sheets, I would love to work there since about 3/4ths of my shift is spent folding sheets and towels and I would love to work at a hotel that does not use the fitted sheets.
yeah i'm a houseekeeper and i've worked at 3 different places, they all used fitted sheets!
I'm a house keeper also and I couldn't imagine using only flat sheets on a bed. That genuinely sounds like a nightmare 😂
Five hotel franchises? Five Nights at... eh nvm
Wow I've been a night auditor for years now. Done a lot of stuff over the years, but never ever have I had to fold any sheets luckily.
Yeah I was about to say, we do in fact use fitted sheets (I am a night auditor as well)
This was informative!
Haha. I'll be more aware now. Thank you for the info.

I love the scenarios info graphics comes up with
My mom actually is the one who taught me how to do the folding of the corners of the sheets because she wasn't housekeeping and still is for years or years even before I was born so knowing the folds and the tux was definitely essential for me to be able to do my own bed in her words it's and looking back on it yes it was definitely and it is still essential i know no other way

I’ve been in a lot of hotels none with folded Toilet paper
undead assassin cheap motels don’t have that
Same I’ve paid $200 for a hotel room and I didn’t come with folded toilet paper
undead assassin there is some but your lucky if you find one this folded toilet paper thing is kinda rare
Only the 5 star hotels do all that, rarely a 4 star.
J J I’ve been in a few 5 star hotels and only one of them had folded toilet paper
My mom taught us how to make a bed with hospital corners and I passed that down to my children. No wonder we all slept so soundly. Guess we’re all ready for the hotel business too! 😊🤗
I work in housekeeping at a golf club that has lodges on the property, and I was told that it for presentation. The only difference is that we use fitted sheets and fold our sheets by hand
I work at a hotel chain that is a world wide brand. We absolutely do use fitted sheets and our laundry girls do an amazing job folding those sheets. We absolutely do use the hospital fold, and let me tell you. Trying to neatly tuck the comforter and blanket when there's a bed skirt is probably the worst part of my job. And house keepers absolutely do talk about the states of the room after a guest has left. I just want to say, trash cans are more than just a suggestion. (Talking from experience) if you throw up in the sink rinse it down as best as you can, it just may save you $75 charge 😉
Yeah, Nobody's really thinking about hotels with this pandemic going on right now lol.
Seth Freakin Rollins true
You’re not wrong
it’s a nice distraction:)
I am, because I work at one in WA state, and the owners refuse to close. I really wish they would, but they're milking it. So I'm pretty sure I'ma get covid19... 😭
Except foreigners who can't go back to their country
I’ve worked at 20+ hotel properties over the course of my career and at every location we did and still do use fitted sheets. I also have never worked at a property that had a folding machine instead of a housekeeper(s) designated just to oversee laundry.
I’m on vacation (leaving tomorrow) in Florida and yes, on day 1, the hotel bed blanket/ covers were indeed tucked in, VERY tight
I’ve never seen a toilet paper roll folded, EVER
So yea you won't find that at motel 6 and the snugly wugly 1.5 star motels 😆
Teshoma Calkins 😐 Hyatt, Holiday Inn, Hilton.
Most corporate hotels that are 2 stars and up ( even Hampton by Hilton or Wingate by Wyndham) all have folded toilet paper rolls as standard
Me either
I run vacation rentals and toilet paper ends must be folded into a triangle after cleaning. It's only proper.
i’m interested to find out how this video can be ten minutes long
MONEY. Sadly.
There are other Channel with videos on 3-5 minutes Better Than infographics (or Whatever it's called) btw.
To allow for ads during the video. You can skip the first few minutes.
Great channel!! Love the vids
Glad you enjoy it!
Great stuff
Ah yes I love when I go to bed in a hotel and there a *scorpion* in my bedsheets
Thanks for the video ! Always have wondered about this
this first minute in just hearing u describe the beds and comfort level, im bout to book one night at the nearest/cheapest hotel near my work downtown toronto SOLEY to crawl into what u just described. so right, decent hotels, their beds for some reason immaculately comfortable
Now I will never think of hotels the same…but at the same time this is a very useful video.💖
I love the way they always start videos with a story as to how you ended up in a specific situation
ah yes, the question of the century.
I worked for Disney Grand Floridian Resort, for 4 Years. this video is really accurate on everything.
Great video
I love this narrator the most he has the most expression
I can’t even listen to the other narrator.
i miss travelling, man what i wouldn't give to go into another country again
I’m a housekeeper at a Hilton hotel, and we use both fitted and flat sheets and we have duvets on our comforters and we change those every time as well. We NEVER re use any linen on the bed we always change to fresh clean linen.
I personally love how hotel beds are tucked like that. Like a hug
"I want two sheet on my bed"
"Just go to the bathroom"
I feel like this was a personal issue for the narrative lol
i have listened to so many of these shows and i still love his voice
3:25 I couldn't stop laughing 😂🤣. Although I don't know if Infographics Show meant to potray her as the actual "kArEn". Does look like her.
"Folding machines"
[Angry roomskeeper nosies intensify]
I personally find it comfortable
When I finally get under the covers it’s they’re cuddling me, and how is a demon supposed to pull me out of those sheets
I actually forgot about this, and you're right, why the heck are they so tight
Lol I worked for Marriott and Best Western International and they both use fitted sheets on the bottom of the beds. Fitted sheets can be hand folded pretty fast if you get the technique down
I love how the guy's wife/girlfriend name is *KAREN*
What is Aaroon Hernandez's favorite part of the bed sheet?
The tight end.

@@anthonytoliver9981 ...............
Finally the real questions we need answered
I worked in a Hampton inn as a housekeeper for a month before I quit; and comforters were washed daily; bed runners weren't a thing. We never folded toilet paper, we had 9 minutes to clean a room, dust everything and make the bed, among other things
3:24 "The sheets are clean, Karen! Can we get some rest now?!"
What about "why do groups of Teenage girls go right outside your doorway and start singing at 3:am and when you report I nothing happens and they go away then a bit later someone randomly knocks on the door meanwhile you couldn't sleep and waited through the night" yes this is something that happened during a vacation. I legit waited through the night
I work at a hotel and everything he said was right but we just have so few beds so we have different sheets for the bed. We also change and wash our comforters after every guest
I was literally thinking about this!

@@CuzDino He literally made a whole sentence saying he meant to say beds...
Yeah I know it, I’ve wonder the same thing, at first I thought it was strange that the sheets are so tight but now it makes sense.
This channel helped me sleep XD
The question no one asked but needed
1:09 I cant unsee those big shoulders
Both hotels I've worked in which is candle wood and LA Quinta both used fitted sheets and comforters were washed daily. I had to fold the sheets which is why I cam fold fitted sheets so well
Yess it’s True i’ve worked in the hotel Industry for 3 years and it’s safe to say that mostly every hotel doesn’t wash the duvet.
That’s why their sheets are so tight, they’re full of secrets
Yeah your right.P.S they also have dank memes
Lol why are the animated housekeeper's so thicc 😂

@@livijean1 Question mark
I just noticed a trick that The Infographics Show uses,
They put an intriguing or relatable question in the thumbnail and/or title,
Answer that question,
Then put in some other questions in the same category.
So you clicked for one question, since they already got you into the video, they added more questions increasing your interest, and those questions also dragged the watch time,
I lived with my ex who worked security at a hotel for a few months,and I can confirm this is all true. The less you touch in a hotel the better,let me just put it that way. Mind you I got special treatment and I still cleaned everything even after they came through cleaning.
Coronavirus: *is the epicenter of attention*

Right! I sleep so well in hotel beds! 😂
ive never been in a hotel
or basically anywhere 3 kilometers around my house ;-;
Dragon_God26 Official but on steroids well at least you’re used to the current situation (the staying at home part)
I clean units/rooms and change linen. We tuck in the sheets because it also helps get additional wrinkles out
I had lovely experience Last time i stayed at IBIS hotel in Melbourne central. Australia. Very comfortable. Yes the sheets were extra tight though n tissue folded too...lol. but still they charge more from other small things like drinks n snacks..
I love how you make these scenarios😂
👌🏽💯
Finally answers to the worlds most important questions
The hotel I work at has fitted sheets and the comforters and duvets are washed after every guests and we don’t fold the toilet paper and the housekeeping don’t get tips. Since COVID started so many things have changed in the industry.
Love the title
I actually love how tight they are
Same honestly
Nobody
infographics show title designer: lets make a hotel sheets
"No one else has touch anything that's about to touch you"
Somehow this phrase feels like a stab to my heart.....
I find it very cozy and comforting.
