#9: Got Milk?
This is such an oddly specific hotel hack, but it must have resonated with people since it was one of the most up-voted posts on the thread. If you’re a fan of milk and absolutely have to have it while you’re on vacation, most hotels have the hook-up. You just have to know how to ask for it.

If you ask nicely, hotel staff will most likely give you fresh milk straight from the kitchen instead of the weird watered-down, pre-packaged milk cartons. This is just another example of how being kind and polite can pay off. We’re sure this hack doesn’t apply exclusively to milk. Asking nicely for extra pillows, fresh coffee, or a freshly baked good probably works as well.
