But even in other types of hotels it’s possible they have some, you have have that option in the filters of some booking engines. | |
| May 19, 2023 at 20:00 | comment | added | Jörg W Mittag | "it is often expensive" – just to give a sense of scale, from personal experience, having the hotel wash two pairs of socks or a single pair of jeans costs as much as an entire machine at a laundromat. Once, I was forced to stay on a work trip for five weeks instead of two and had to wash my clothes in between. It cost ~150€ for an amount that would have easily fit into a 5€ machine at a laundromat. | |
