Neat! Quiet, I’m sleeping creatively
In some hotels, three-dimensional objects petition for privacy in lieu of [do not disturb] signs. Guests at Kinnaird Estate in Perthshire, Scotland, for example, place a teddy bear outside their door; the pecan-colored bear wears a blue knit sweater with a “Do Not Disturb” button. At the Lodge at Torrey Pines in La Jolla, Calif., a pine cone does the work. A black velvet sack embroidered with a sun and moon hangs from silver door hooks at the Sanctuary on Camelback Mountain in Scottsdale, and at the Watermark Hotel & Spa in San Antonio, a black leather “Shhhh” pillow prevents unwanted intrusions.
