This is just anecdotal but the problem with spending a large amount of money on a great bed, pillow, and other comforts is that you get extremely use to it (ignoring medical issues).
So once you go to a hotel, friends house, etc it becomes impossible to sleep there.
For example what is the deal with hotels not having fitted sheets. Or just spending a little more for higher thread count. I remember as a kid I could sleep on anything. Sadly now if I don't have 500 thread count Egyptian cotton and down pillows.. its going to be a shitty night.
Thus some sort of travel bedding solution might interest me otherwise if I start traveling again I'm thinking about practice sleeping on the floor since that is at least consistently available :)

Better to have something super thin that keeps the mozzies out. >practice sleeping on the floor since that is at least consistently available :) Bathtub sounds cleaner frankly...
- sandworm101 11y agoIf you learn to sleep on something less than a full bed, as 1/2 the world does, then you should be good to go at any hotel. I personally have never found anything the west would call a mattress that is firm enough for my tastes. The best sleeps I've had have been on a 1" thermarest inside a bivi sack strapped to a cliff. It's not about the bed. It's about what you are doing and how stressed you are while doing it.
