BEST WESTERN Employer Reviews

answering multi-line phones. checking customers in and out. learned how to use microsoft. management is good and very helpful. co-workers all work hard.

a typical day at work for me was get my cart ready towels sheets blankets and etc. I learned if you pace yourself you will get all your work done on time and have time to go over your work. my manager and co-workers was great they was nice got along with me really well because im a reliable hard working honest person. the hardest part of the job was – more... nothing if you follow instructions everything will be easy. the part I enjoyed was being alone – less

great hours, but the owners want to you work without over time pay.

A typical day at Best Western was, taking out trash, good relations with coworkers, cleaning around the hotel, good relations with customers, laid back and easy going. There wasnt a whole lot of supervision involved, more of a free flowing type of job. The manager would be there during the day hours, but usually, there would be an ordinary coworker, – more... accompanying us (Best Western drivers) during the evening shifts, which is what i worked, from time to time. Some times the assistant manager would accompany the drivers during the nights, but rarely the general manager, on duty during those shifts. The easiest and most fun part of the job, was driving the van (the job itself, of course) and the hardest part, would be the cleaning, which just takes endurance and motivation. But thats something thats easy to aquire. Ive learned a lot while i was there. I learned how to build friendly relationships with the guests, as well as my coworkers! I learned how to build generosity, and courtesy. And it helped me to become more open and confident! I also learned how to take directions better, and handle pressure much easier, than i use to. And most of all, it helped me improve my driving skills! Also, Ive learned how to drive a large van! Never been in an accident, during the 4/5 years i was there. – less

it was the most worst work place i had ever worked in. very rude people.

I would get on average four to five rooms a day and 30 mins to complete each one, meaning take out laundry, remake beds, clean bathrooms and vacume. I learned what it took to thuroughly clean a room. The management was almost never there so nobody recieved positive reinforcement but the coworkers were friendly. The hardest part of the job making the – more... bed presentable for customers. The part I most enjoyed was vacuming, because it meant I was almost done. – less

It was a fun place to work it was a work at your own pace and thats what i love. The only part i did not liike is that latter i found out that i was not on the pay roll i was getting paid under the table and that is why they never called me back to work.

I really do like it here... Although sometimes it does get pretty slow and there isn't much to do.
I've learned so much from being here. I've broke out of my shell, as sometimes I have to call our guests or credit card companies, sometimes travel agency places or even the companies that we have for direct billing here. It's a lot all rolled into one.
Management – more... is okay. They've been really good to me and I appreciate them so much for it.
I never work with anyone besides myself, so I really couldn't tell you.
The hardest part is having to deal with difficult guests or dealing with mistakes from a fellow employee that was before my shift and so on.
The most enjoyable part is being able to interact with so many different people and just discovering new things I hadn't known before. – less

Would not recommend as a place to work let alone a place to stay

Good place to work, enjoyed meeting new people, and interacting with people from out of town

That is one tough bunch of housekeepers. They work so hard to leave by 3pm that it's almost a rat race to get in there and actually have all the linens you need first. There were never enough linens, the slowest one would simply have to come down during break and get the fresh clean ones from the wash. (which sometimes disabled us from finishing rooms – more... as quickly as we wanted too) the only bad thing I can say is that some of the housekeepers needed to learn that they were not the only people on the planet I had a few run ins with one of them and her laziness and lack of thought for others appalled me. – less

Tough days, hard on your back because you're always having to bend down and make beds and pick things off the floor, change the trash, clean the bathroom floors with your hands. I vacuumed and dusted and pretty much anything that involves cleaning a room until it was spotless like no one has even slept in there.

Overall the hotel was a nice place. A lot of down time though. Easy to work there.

even though the job was short it was fun the people at best western were very friendly .the instructions of jobs were made clear and precise,there was hardly any idle time and many things to do .

management didnt treat the employees equal. The hours were awful the hourly employees were great. the job in general didnt really care for it because i cleaned up after railroad ppl and they wedre nasty@@@!!!

Really enjoyed working there but had its slow times. Only reason I quit was because the schedule wasnt suitable for having children.

enjoy customers and helping other employees to get the job done

Best Western on a typical day was alright... Management was friendly and got alone with most of my co workers. The hardest part of the job a lot od times was working the the heat. The most enjoyable time was when all the co workers in my department get together and bring something for everyone to eat and have a pot luck.

Greet and register guests as well as create reservations world-wide.

I only worked there for a month because I relocated, but I would have to clean all the vacant rooms assigned to me and restock them in a fashionly manner. I learned all the basic of having a job and what is required. My co-workers were very easy to get along with. Hardest part of the job was when there wern't enough supplies to stock the rooms so I – more... had to improvise. Most enjoyable part I would have to say was the access to whatever it is we needed whether it be while we were working or on break/lunch. – less
