An obvious thing, but I don't think everyone guessed it right. Actually, that's why this life hack still works. Applies not only to Thailand, but also to any other rented accommodation around the world, including hotels. The main thing is only the presence of an already existing orthopedic mattress.
Life hack
I think many people have come across the fact that when entering a house, the mattress on the bed is slightly old and at the same time the mattress topper is not used, and the sheet lies right on the mattress. Although I am not very squeamish, the realization that many bodies were sweating here before me and all this was absorbed into the mattress does not give me much enthusiasm. Yes, you can buy your own mattress cover, I admit it. But you won't carry it with you every time, it takes up decent space, and it weighs decently. And running to buy every time, you also do not run up, given that the store will not always be close by. So there is a banal and simple solution - turn the mattress to the other side!
In general, mattress manufacturers recommend doing this regularly (and changing top-bottom too), but apparently few people follow these recommendations, at least in Thailand. It seems to me that Thais put a mattress and do not touch it for many years. Moreover, some people do not even rip off the film from it, assuming that it is normal to sleep on cellophane.

Having stopped in our house in Phuket, first of all, I waved the mattress to the other side, because the current one was all in dark stains.
Upon entering the house, the mattress looked like this
Little pleasure to sleep on such

And I was lucky, the second side turned out to be pristine.
The second side is perfectly clean
As if just from the factory
P.S. In the house where we lived in Phuket, this life hack will not work now ... As you already understood, the post is not serious, comic 🙂 But nevertheless, you can do this.
