I always loved percale sheets because they were 'crisp'. Suddenly, they seemed impossible to find. I bought some really expensive, high thread count sheets that I hated. Nothing compares to percale IMO. About a year ago, I sold my condo and moved to a retirement community. Part of my monthly fee includes weekly housekeeping and all my linens so I don't worry about it any more.
The sheets are not as crisp but I find having someone else making the bed and laundering them makes up for it.
