My first months as a housekeeper
Let me start by saying I work in a hotel, and it’s in the medium to higher range, especially for the area. $80-$130 a night.
The first thing, our hotel is straight up just covered in mold. I seen them paint over mold and leaks instead of repairing. Some rooms are much worse than others. Some rooms are “newly renovated,” so I usually do those and even those have mold.
The other rooms that still have carpet have mold growing on the bottom of furniture too, and the tubs are full of rust and damage. I’m glad I get to do the “better” ones tbh because I would force them to seal and paint the tubs if I have to look at it all day.
So keep in mind the rooms I usually clean are “nice” and cost the most.
My first month working there, I kept finding sheets with period blood on it. At first I thought they were just accidents or like period sex mishaps… nope. Not all of them. There was multiple women using the pillows and sheets as their personal pads. There was 2 times in two different rooms in one day that I found some crazy period blood everywhere, someone had used a towel, and had an extra towel on the bedside table for their next go around. Like rancid ass behavior.
Then I had a room someone peed all over the bed, and a few doors down the hall on the same exact day, someone had smoked meth, inside a whole ass HOTEL, absolutely just trashed the place with spilled food and weird yellow residue over a damp pile of towels. I have to think the two rooms of people were all just having a meth party or something and were connected.
The one I just found yesterday was almost the grossest, I seen a yellow brown towel in the shower. My eyes told me it wasn’t dirt. It was POOP. Chunks of poop. And the shower was used, so the wash cloth was dripping wet, in a yellow brown puddle of poop waterrrr 😭😭😭😭😭😭
They have these dumb showers where you have this metal screen over the drain and stuff you have to pick up and clean under. Really annoying because it collects the entire contents of someone’s shower, hair, soap scum, snot, nasty stuff like dookie puddles.
I am just in disbelief tbh. I don’t know if it’s just because of the location or what…. I don’t know. I want to try another hotel
