Loved the people I worked with
Front Desk Clerk (Former Employee), Gastonia, NC – May 21, 2013
I would come in and be briefed about any special circumstances that had taken place that morning. I would review all my reservations and make sure I had all my paperwork ready for each guest. I would also bake cookies on a daily basis.

My Job is Awesome!
Night Auditor (Current Employee), Ooltewah, TN – May 21, 2013
Pros: discounted employee rooms, free breakfast before i leave to go home, i have awesome co-workers
Cons: no healthcare benefits, always get called in on my day off, trying to stay awake when i have nothing to do.
I love my job as a Night Auditor at my hotel. I run reports and do a little accounting with our credit cards. I've learned to be patient and to keep myself busy. I've also learned that organization is the main key to success. Our management at the hotel is okay, we just changed managers so everything is chaotic. My co-workers all get along with each – more... other and we all keep a pretty close friendship (at work not personal) so we have no problem with communicating to each other about everything that happened in our day. I really don't consider my job hard. I guess the only ting that is hard is staying up all night with nobody to talk too and bored out of my mind. Thats why I've learned to keep myself busy. I enjoy my job to the fullest and take pride in it. – less

Terrible manager/owner
Housekeeper (Former Employee), St. Louis, MO – May 20, 2013
Pros: i gained some experience
Cons: management, pay, hours, schedule, customer service, training
I worked here one month. It was the worst job I ever had. I researched the place after I was employed. They have terrible reviews, bad customer service, & they allow theft. This is for the hotel in Lafayette Square. There is a girl there that steals the housekeepers' tips& who knows what else. It was not fair for me to work minimum & not get my tips. – more... We broke our backs last week trying to make sure they would pass inspection because they have failed every time in the past. The place was a junk when I first got there & has vastly improved with the help of the new Housekeeping Sup. The little thief was caught stealing 3 times in less than 2 weeks & the manager/owner nonchalantly shrugged it off & allowed her to stay. The third time was the last time for me. It's bad enough that she automatically takes out an hour for lunch/:-) whether we took one or not. I told her I might go back if she fired the thief, but then again, she wouldn't work around my husbands schedule so I'll pass. I also wasn't trained properly & had to learn a bunch of stuff when the new lady was hired. – less

Alright place to work.
Guest Service Representative (Current Employee), Joplin, Missouri – May 20, 2013
Pros: good food.
Cons: rude people, inconsistant hours.
Not very high pay. Never know what hours you will be working. But, good people. Good atmosphere. Good place to work if you are looking for advancement. You have to buy your lunches, but the food is really good.

Busy but enjoyable facility
Housekeeper (Current Employee), Erie, PA – May 20, 2013
Pros: staff is easy to work with
Cons: healthcare, raises
A typical day starts at 9-9:30 a.m. We get our papers with the assigned area of rooms to be done that day and we clean the rooms according to the standards and rules of the Hotel. Generally we do 10-16 rooms per Housekeeper. I learned how to do different types of jobs within the hotel not just H/K. My co-workers are easy to work with and I try to get – more... along with all of them altough since some are from other countries ' that makes communication difficult since they don't speak a lot of english. The hardest part of the job is being on my feet for 6-8 hours at a time, especially since housekeeping is a very physically tiring job to do. Most enjoyable part is that it is a good place to work and I like to be kept busy. – less

Kitchen staff and waitresses dont eat unless they pay and tips arent – more... enough to cover a meal so what is the point. – less

Excellent Service
Guest Services Representative & Shuttle Driver (Former Employee), Bloomington, MN – May 16, 2013
Pros: good incentives (sell-outs, guest service reviews), free meals
Another hotel that taught me how to own situations and come up with solutions by myself. This hotel believes in employee self-empowerment. If there was any sort of guest or hotel issue, the front desk staff, as the face of the hotel, would take on full responsibility for it and find a solution while providing "full circle service" and following it through – more... to the end. – less
