Be Careful Staying at Hotels

[BlessedOne04]

I have worked in a hotel and we also used paper cups but the lack of cleanliness does not surprise me at all. It starts with hotel management trying to get as many rooms clean in as little time as possible with sometimes no inspection at all. If I had to clean 10 rooms in three hours there would have to be some corners cut! 20 minutes is not enough time to get everything done. If you stay in a room 2 days or more your sheets are only being changed 1 time and your comforter may only be changed once a month. However responsibility must also be placed with housekeepers, because they know they would not want dirty things in their personal rooms. People just do not care and if this report had never come out, things would continue to get worse.

Oh and to clarify, I worked the front desk at my hotel and washed towels and pillowcases because folding those sheets were a pain in the butt and for the 3rd shift person.

Did you work at a Residence Inn?? I did the same exact thing except I had a sheet folder!

This is so disgusting. I started a thread on something similar to this one regarding hotel towels and sheets. I always bring my own. Thanks for posting this. I'll be bringing my own cups too from now on.

We had the folder as well but again that was for the 3rd shift person to sweat out, lol, at the good old Fairfield Inn.

yup, I always take my own towels and washcloths and I buy water. I think I'm going to start taking my own sheets/pillow cases too...now travelling with a comforter is a bit much but I wish I could do that.
