When you check into a hotel, you assume the maid has cleaned everything and changed the pillows and sheets. But how much cleaning do maids really do when you're not around? The truth is quite shocking and may make you think twice about staying in a hotel.
To see just how much (and how little) some hotel maids really clean, the Rossen Reports team decided to do an investigation of their own. They checked into several popular hotel rooms and set up hidden cameras. After making the room look "used," they made a call to housekeeping to come clean the room.
With the cameras rolling, they caught maids cutting corners to save time and even using some unsanitary cleaning methods. At one hotel, they found a maid using towels to dry the toilet and the shower before using the same towel to quickly scrub the counter. Other maids didn't change the pillow cases or bedding, despite requesting that all linens be changed. Another maid placed the used drinking glasses in the sink and used one of the dirty towels from the bathroom floor to help clean and dry the cups.
Many of the hotels responded saying that these are rare cases and cleanliness is an important part of providing guests with the best hotel experience. What do you think of these hidden camera findings?
