Answer 1

They’re cheaper because they’re not dyed and they don’t fade. If you have colored bedsheets and they fade this gives a bad look for a hotel even if the sheets are fine. White also give an impression of cleanliness. They’re not that much concerned with stains because ultimately they have so many that if one of them ends up with stains that don’t get removed by their heavy duty washers they just throw them away.
