The behind the hotel action is not as exciting as people describe it. In all honesty it is good if you have reliable co-workers that come in when they are scheduled to come in. If you're co workers are unreliable you have to have more than your share of rooms to clean because they decided not to show up. Then when we are for example booked up all the rooms need cleaning they have to be cleaned. At my hotel we have unreliable workers, and bosses that let them get away with not showing up, or walking off the job, or individuals that throw fits if they have to many rooms to do, I have been working there for three years nearly, and it has never been as bad as it has been this year, No one wants to do their job, no one wants to even show up for interviews for said job so it is frustrating to me, and other co workers that do take their job seriously to deal with these unprofessional ,temper tantrum throwing co workers that choose to work only on the days they want to work , or bother showing up. As for the whole incoming guest don't expect any kindness ,or common courtesy from them and forget about being tipped. It is around Christmas No one has left any tips because These guest do not acknowledge you as a housekeeper, or a person. You are nothing to these guest just garbage. Currently looking to get out of the hotel business all together. Between the lazy co workers and the self absorbed guest just not worth it any more.

Bistro Cashier Cook at Courtyard Marriot

I have been in ever department in the hotel business except mgr. I love the job and the guest’s that check in. It’s pretty fast pace and you have to be good with people. Working in a hotel is all about making them feel at home and completely comfortable. Going above and beyond is my job and I absolutely love it. Would have to agree you have to stay on top of things or you do fall behind. Having a good memory for names and faces always helps. I’m flexible hours because a hotel is open 24 seven. Just give it a shot you’ll love it if you’re a people person like I am
