Some years ago I went on a cruise and they provided a name-brand toothpaste, and iirc a hotel in UK or Europe provided toothpaste on my stay. I was excited each time I received it. A Sheraton I visited recently provided a packet of shave cream. It smelled of horrible medicine and it didn't protect my face at all during shaving; in fact, I determined over two days that using it had been worse than not at all. Note that I tried with and without mixing it with an appropriate amount of water, but it didn't matter. I know there is probably a significant cost different to the hotel, but I vote for name-brand toothpaste over horrible shave cream. As for the rest, they only thing I would want is shampoo. Since the TSA started checking for "insecure" amounts of fluids, I have really started to rely on the shampoo in hotels. I only keep an "insecurely" large bottle of shampoo at home and don't want to waste time and energy putting it into a small bottle to take with me for the matter of a few to several days of use.
