I have never found hotel sheets, etc. to be ‘smooth’ enough for me. Even the high end stuff doesn’t beat my bamboo sheets. Had a friend stay here for a week recently. After the first night she came out of the bedroom and said...I don’t even want to know how much you paid for those sheets...they’re fabulous. I just laughed and pulled them up online so she could order some for herself. I recently stayed at 4 different hotels, all very nice, and complained about all their sheets being too ‘rough’ for me. lol

I do not believe I have ever slept on Bamboo sheets.

I stayed at a BnB in VT in Ludlow near Okemo Ski area. They had these down comforters that were so nice I considered buying one. When they gave me the $350 price I said I would let them know.

I always thought that the hotels bought 600+ thread count 100% cotton sheets. The reason they may feel rough is that they bleach them in very hot water to clean them properly.
That is why all hotel sheets are white.

The Starwood hotel chain. Now owned by Marriot had their Heavenly Bed. In all their hotel rooms they had a price list for the sheets, pillows, comforters, even the mattress. The mattress was made by one of the major brands.
I ended up buying the highest version of that mattress at my local retailer. It lasted like any other mattress for about 9-10 years. I am now due for a new one.
