Genuine question, is there a function to these objects which exist in most hotel rooms beyond A Thing To Chuck Your Clothes On Because It Feels Weird To Just Throw Them On The Floor?

The thing, now with clothes piled on it

@stavvers You put your suitcase on them and and the open it up and live out of your suitcase, so you don't have to unpack everything.

@golgaloth OH!!!! This makes so much fucking sense except then that means your dirty clothes go on the floor?

@stavvers No, your clean clothes go in the closet, and your dirty clothes go back in the suitcase. It helps to make packing and unpacking easer, but also easier to grab stuff you might leave in your suitcase if you don't want to unpack completely. But also, yes, I usually dump my dirty stuff on the floor.

@stavvers I think you just made all the questions I have also asked myself and never got the answers too 😅. I do similar stuff to what you describe.

Dozens, there are dozens of us.

Furthermore, I usually travel with a couple of empty plastic bags, so anything dirty goes in the bags while the clean clothes can be free range in the suitcase when I leave. But apparently that's not normal, since hotel rooms provide wardrobes, a suitcase stand (?!) and no bags.

honestly this has pure blown my mind. SUITCASE STANDS! I usually just put mine on either the floor, desk or armchair

While I have you here, hotel room furniture understanders, why are there usually cushions on the bed? What are you meant to do with them when they are clearly not pillows and uncomfortable as pillows, and seem to serve no function on the bed?

ALSO, what does that thing that is like a blanket but very small and only goes across the foot of the bed do? Both this and the cushions usually join my suitcase on the floor.

@stavvers that's to protect the bedding from people who collapsed on top of the bed before they've taken their shoes off...

Have you reached the stage of the hotel room stay where you discover that turning all the lights off is a challenge to rival the finest escape rooms ? 21 lights, 8 switches, of which 2 appear to do nothing...

@stavvers to throw at the friend you're sharing a room with when you discover that despite claims to the contrary, they do in fact snore. Loudly.

At least that's what I use them for...
