What Is That Fabric Strip Across a Hotel Bed Really For?
If you’ve ever checked into a hotel, you may have noticed something unusual at the end of the bed.
A long strip of patterned fabric stretches across the comforter, often in a bold color that contrasts with the rest of the bedding.
You might have wondered: Why is that piece of fabric there?
It’s commonly called a bed runner, and although it may look like a purely decorative detail, it can serve several practical purposes too.
