Answer 1

Hotels use white bed sheets exactly because they stain easily

With a white sheet it’s very easy to spot if they weren’t cleaned properly.

Having the wash all the same color also makes it easier because you don’t worry about bleeding colors and fading, and you can use bleach to clean them and remove stains.
