HOTEL beds are AWFUL Or is it me

Sales Topic General Discussion

Returned to traveling sales last year after 6 or 7 years out of the game. Never had an issue with hotel beds during my travels then, ever since I got back I’ve stayed primarily at hilton spots. Doesn’t matter if they’re new or old. Garden inns/ double trees or HILTON. All beds are absolute rocks now. I have been now picking double queen rooms so I can use the pillows under my body to give some relief? Is it just me. I know I’m in my 30s now. But it can’t just be me. Do most people like sleeping on these concrete slabs. Is it a Hilton thing. Should I build up points at another hotel brand? I miss being home I miss my wife, I really miss my daughters. But boy I damn sure miss mattress when I’m gone.

Anyone else deal with this, if so what are your remedies? Last hotel I stayed at I actually bought a mattress topper at a local Walmart to make it easier, but that’s not feasible when I fly and is cumbersome when I drive. There has to be a better way. MY BACK IS PLEADING FOR HELP
