Simmons has introduced a new mattress that lets you zip off the top layers of the mattress and replace them. By doing this, you can extend the life of your hotel’s mattresses. A mattress can now last up to 14 years according to Simmons.

Our take: It seems like a solid idea. The replacement tops cost about $120. It seems like a good solution to replace soiled mattresses for about 1/5th of the cost. We really like any idea that improves the cleanliness of the beds in hotel rooms. Hotel beds have really come a long way in recent years. We really believe that the triple sheet system that replaced the disgusting comforters is one of the biggest improvements for hotels in decades.
Hat tip: We originally were tipped off about this mattress in the Hotel Check-In Blog.
Refrigerators in guest rooms are a great idea. Old refrigerators with compressors that cycle on and off all night are not such a great idea. We recently ran into a new refrigerator during a trip to a newly renovated hotel. The great thing about the Suite Fridge is the addition of two new buttons.
