Re: What can you take from hotels?
Guidelines used to be, if it had the hotel's logo on it, you were expected to take it. Remember the Holiday Inn ashtrays? The days of logo's (small scale operations anyway) are gone.
Shampoo and soap will not be re-used once opened. The almost used up toilet paper rolls are usually put in the employee access restrooms. Ammentities untouched stays in the room for the next guest. Linens are not ammentities and many properties will charge missing items back to your room. Large (expensive) hotels sell the thick house- coats and bedding in the gift shop.
The freebies are part of inventory and has little reflection on the price of the room. Many of the freebies are never even put in your room so if you want a new toothbrush, for example, ask at the desk. Other items include, ink pens, shower caps, band-aids....
My uncle says that people take the pictures off the walls! He replaces many even after securing them with screws. I won't go into what he calls those people!
