      I do not sleep on the bare mattress but replace the sheet - I shower before I go to bed and I do not have other hygiene issues. I understand that in the albergues plastic mattress covers are the best option, but mattress protectors are not always...

      ShellToucher replied to the thread The Shell Toucher hat.
