Don't want to iron in your hotel room? Try this.

Submitted by Wanderlust Andi

Yes, we all know that most all hotels have ironing boards and irons. But - who wants to iron when you can have fun?

If your hotel has 2 hangers with clips, you won't have to iron! Simply hang one of the hangers on the shower rod, with your pants (or skirt or shirt) attached via the clips. Then, clip the other 2 clips to the bottom of the clothing item to provide weight. The pull of the hanger will stretch out the winkles. This is particularly good if you have steam in the bathroom from a shower.

If the top hanger does not have one of the hooks regular hangers have (which we all, of course, hate) - you can put the top hanger over the shower head.

Then - go out, enjoy the city, and come back to pants that, although not perfectly ironed, will certainly look much better.

There are some issues with this, however. The biggest problems that have cropped up so far are convenience issues and issues involving guest security.
