Onto the topper. This is what really, really distinguishes the hotel bed from your bed. The topper adds an extra layer of plush and cools you down. If you notice, hotel beds are strangely cool.

There are so many toppers on the market, but the primary two are: down and gel. My topper is down. If you *already own* a mattress and are not looking to replace? This is going to take you to the next level. It goes under the fitted sheet.

Now, toppers run into the thousands, especially for down. I didn't think I was going to find one because I was not spending thousands of even $200+, but I scored one for $170 at *regular price.* I own this topper.

The reason why the topper is the level up is because it is 100% squishy plushness, on top of a supporting foundation (mattress).

Couple notes: memory foam mattresses need about two days to fully expand. Don't freak out if you buy a 10" and, when you first put it down, it's 7-inches. Give it the full two days and try to sleep on the couch (I know
) while it does its thing.1 reply 0 retweets 8 likesShow this thread -
In terms of plushness, I made the mistake of thinking I needed firm. So I bought firm at first and hated it. It was so uncomfortable. I sent it back. It is so hard to nail down exactly what level you need, but in my opinion, err on the side of plush.

And lastly, the coverlet. That's just a blanket that keeps you warmer lol. It's not very special but it can trap warmth and notch up the coziness if you like to sleep in a super cold room. I have a little waffle coverlet from Target. (https://www.target.com/p/waffle-weave-blanket-threshold-153/-/A-51439510 …)

Before I leave y'all alone I will say that you want to avoid harsh detergent and never use bleach on your white linens. It's so harsh & will cut the life of your linens in half. I use good ole Trader Joe's detergent (half the manufacturer's suggested measurement). It's so gentle.

(Additional note: If you are a coil/spring mattress sleeper transitioning to hybrid or foam, it is actually a major change for your body. Your body will need about 30 days for successful transition.)
