Why Bring Your Own Sheets?

When traveling, we often encounter different accommodations with varying cleanliness standards. While hotels strive to provide clean and cozy bedding, some may fall short of standards or have limitations due to budget constraints. Using your own sheets ensures that you have control over the cleanliness and quality of your sleeping environment.

The Comfort Factor

Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to bedding. By bringing your own sheets, you can create a familiar and comfortable sleep environment. Whether you prefer crisp cotton or soft microfiber, the choice is yours. Say goodbye to scratchy sheets and hello to a good night's sleep!

The Hygiene Aspect

Hotels encourage cleanliness, but it's hard to shake off the thought that you're sleeping on sheets that countless strangers have used before you. By bringing your own sheets, you eliminate the worry of who slept on them before and whether they were properly cleaned.

Your Sheet Packing Guide

Now that you've decided to join the BYOS trend, here's a packing guide to ensure you have everything you need for a comfortable journey:

1. Bed Sheets

Pack bed sheets that fit your preferred bed size. Opt for lightweight, breathable materials that are easy to wash and dry.

2. Pillowcases

Remember to pack pillowcases that match your sheets. They contribute to the overall comfort and hygiene of your sleeping experience.

3. Blankets and Comforters

If you feel more comfortable with your own blanket or comforter, be sure to pack it. These items can make a drastic difference in your sleep quality.

4. Travel-Sized Detergent

Carry a small bottle of travel-sized detergent to wash your sheets while on the go, ensuring that you always have clean sheets during your trip.

5. Ziplock Bags

Store your used sheets in ziplock bags to keep them separate from your clean belongings. It's a practical way to maintain cleanliness and odor control.

Where To Find BYOS-Friendly Accommodations?

Although BYOS is still a relatively new concept, some accommodations are catching on to this trend. Research online or contact hotels to inquire if they allow guests to bring their own sheets. Some establishments may provide discounts or perks for BYOS guests.

With the increasing popularity of Bring Your Own Sheets, travelers are taking control of their own comfort and hygiene during their trips. By bringing their own sheets, they can rest peacefully, knowing they are sleeping on clean and familiar bedding.

So, next time you travel, consider joining this trend and start packing your own sheets. Your comfort and peace of mind are worth it!

Ever imagine what it would be like to run a bed and breakfast in one of the world's most beautiful cities? In this hilarious memoir, former international business executive and lawyer Brian McGreevy tells the tale of restoring an 18th century house South of Broad as a charming bed and breakfast that was soon attracting guests from all over the world. Featured in Fodor's Best Bed and Breakfasts in America as well as InStyle Magazine, the McGreevys' B&B provides the stage for a year of adventure as the family, guests, and staff join in the capers and mirth in the heart of the historic district near the Battery.

Lovers of Charleston will relish the chance to escape by living vicariously through this story, a cross between Peter Mayle's "A Year in Provence" and Herman Wouk's "Don't Stop the Carnival." Having grown up in Charleston, with the requisite rites of passage in Charleston like attending Mrs. Whaley's Cotillion and graduating from prestigious Porter-Gaud School, McGreevy is a Charleston insider whose love for this beautiful city shines through his descriptions of its changing seasons.

Featuring a cast of characters including loony tour guides, misplaced Yankees, and woozy housekeepers, these tales will keep you laughing while at the same time making you want to plan another trip to Charleston!
