I stayed a couple of nights at a 5 star beach front resort. I stole a dozen nice pens.

Back in the 1970s I took a old wall mount Coca-Cola bottle opener from a motel somewhere on the east coast.

During Watergate.
folks manufactured “Watergate Hotel” items to sell as real.

I knew people who used to walk in off the street and get a continental breakfast.

Well, vibrator beds are cool. Have to get the new mattresses though

Stealing hotel mattresses? I never thought of that, maybe an occasional bar of soap or some shampoo.

The coffee machines in most hotel rooms are of the $20 drip variety. Not worth stealing.

I think they want you to take those. It is free advertising. That is why they put the hotels name on them.

I have a shoe horn from the Cloister in Sea Island, Ga.
I had the sea shell do not disturb sign from the Grand Wailea on Maui.

Many hotels have changed the wooden hangers so they will not work on a standard closet rod because they were stolen so much.

In many hotels, you may purchase the bathrobe typically for about $75.
I bought the bath robe from Caesars Palace. The emblem is embroidered on the upper chest area.

I don’t even like sleeping on a multi-use hotel mattress much less would I steal one.

How do you even steal a matress without anyone noticing? It’s not something you can put in a briefcase or stuff in your waistband.

Taking hotel soaps isn’t stealing. It’s merely taking an item you paid for.

Just a few minutes ago I was packing for a business trip and handed my wife 20 or so hotel soaps. She includes them with Operation Christmas Child boxes to be shipped overseas.

Hotel mattresses are a revolting collection of various contributors’ DNA and other (hopefully) dried body fluids that I wouldn’t want to handle without a hazmat suit. Stealing one would lead me to question the sanity of the thief.
