Some hotels are super luxurious, but they lack a homely feel. After all, no one wants to eat room service meals every day. How nice would it be if you could just open the fridge and find your favorite snacks? Beyond that, the environment of a hotel is still quite different from home.The Huffington Posthas compiled seven tips to make your hotel feel more like home—definitely worth a try.

1. Use hangers to secure the curtains
Many flight attendants use this trick to keep the room dark.

2. Use clothespins as a toothbrush holder
This way, you don’t have to use a glass and can save it for drinking.

3. Use dry fabric as an air freshener
If you find the room’s air quality unpleasant, place some dry fabric over the air conditioning vent and turn it on—this can help improve the air.

4. Charge devices using the TV
Many modern TVs come with USB ports.

5. Bring an extension cord
If you’re traveling with a group, an extension cord is incredibly handy.

6. Use shower caps as containers for takeout food

7. Use the air conditioner as a humidifier
Many hotel rooms are very dry and uncomfortable. Try placing a damp towel over the air conditioner to improve the humidity.
