Marketplace is checking back in to six of Canada’s largest hotel chains, testing to see if they have cleaned up their act after we revealed The Dirt on Hotels last year. Are the stains on the sheets and walls gone? Are the bathrooms and ice machines free of bacteria? Despite promises to address the shocking conditions, bedroom surprises still lurk in some of Canada’s most popular hotels.

David Bijo Samuel AM NEVER GOING TO A HOTEL !!!!

As a housekeeper I always try to keep my rooms clean. The problems often come from management. Getting the rooms done fast is usually far more important than doing it well. I once had to debate with my manager in front of the big boss when he tried to get me fired for taking an extra 5 minutes in each room. I pulled a cloth with black streaks out of my pocket and asked if it was acceptable for me to leave that dirt in the room. He said no so I said "so I guess I better take a few extra minutes and fix it, huh?" He no longer works at our hotel. I still do. My rooms are not perfect, but I do my best.
Alsina Kiria nice i would take my time wether I get fired or not. People deserve a nice clean stay at a hotel.
Guinevere Scott I need to eat, so I need a job. I do it as management wants.
Alsina Kiria great job 😊
Props from me! Wish more people thought like that
Alsina Kiria ghh
This is one channel that I never thought I would get addicted to
I though im the only one who's additced
IKR!!!!
I'm not even canadian 😂
😄 Ditto!! 😅
I know eh.
I worked for a "luxury" holiday home company here in Australia for a few years and I can tell you that even when you are paying top dollar for your establishment to be cleaned, there are MANY corners being cut. For example, if the bed sheets and pillow cases didn't "look dirty" we were told to leave them on for the next guests, some of whom were paying tens of thousands of dollars to stay for a night. That's just the tip of the iceberg. A lot of the corner cutting comes down to time. For example, we were given 4 hours total to clean a house with 10 rooms and over 30 beds. If we went over the time, we weren't payed.
I now ALWAYS take my own bedding when I stay ANYWHERE away from home and definitely do my own clean with antibacterial wipes when I get there. Cutting corners like some companies do, can make people really sick and in worst cases, cost lives.
If you want it done properly, do it yourself. It amazes me that the companies don't make sure things are cleaned properly as it can and has ended up in many lawsuits around the world.
That's really gross that they don't change the sheets - management should be held personally responsible. Should guests strip the sheets and ask for fresh sheets?
@@b.k.3364 There’s no way to determine if the establishment will give you ‘fresh’ sheets or not. It’s best to bring your own - take a set of old sheets with you or pick up clearanced king size flat sheets wherever you can find them on sale. Either dispose of them after using or sanitize them when you get home. That way, you’ll know for certain the bed linen is clean.
@@lynettep7015 I stay in some hotels for the experience of the nice sheets. If I come with some cheap ones, why do I pay so much for a night?
@fg9223 simple: get better sheets!!
I want to see Hospital Rooms tested 👍🏻
It's been done
Many healthy ppl have contracted & died from Influenza A & CDiff from dirty hospitals
* my Dad, RIP Louis O3/13/2018
They have a Marketplace episode here on TH-cam that talks about hopiral cleanliness. Hope you aren't sick anytime soon!!
No you don't especially the window blind pull cords 😔🤯... I stayed in hospital with my child for almost 1 year and had several swabs done while there they told me the results where so bad they couldn't even share with me and there was stuff they didn't know what it was even on the medication drawers... I would virox my child's while room even floor twice a day everything. They never even mopped the floor in our room once the whole time we where there. I did it with virox and booties covers skating around the floor and gloves and hands under counter etc...
Especially from how much they charge for them
6:15 they say its "urine" but we all know what it really is
Yeah and drool.... I think not
+Bill Russell yes
That's exactly what I thought! Scrolled down to see if i was the only one to notice. 😂

“We’re undercover.”
They’re dressed up as the Gestapo and stick out like soar-thumbs, what can possibly go wrong?
Daryl Lander "soar" means to fly. You're trying to say "sore" aka painful. You should sue your EFL teacher.
@saskia black, the teachers are teaching this!! I am a school nurse and I get passes from the teachers telling me the student has a soar throat. Seriously! I had a pass stating she thought the student had an absence in her tooth. I replied back saying, "I don't know where her absence is, but it isn't in her tooth." These are the people educating our children.
Lmao exactly what I was thinking, spy vs spy lmao
I was a housekeeper at a hotel years ago and it is true that you are given 20 rooms in an 8 hr. shift. If you didn’t have your allotted rooms done in your shift the manager or a coworker would have to clean the remainder of rooms. Comforters and blankets are only changed if they looked soiled. My manager and laundry scolded me for changing out the above mentioned items. I quit and started cleaning houses on my own because I refuse to accept filth for myself or anyone who occupies a space I was responsible to clean.
Im a housekeeper and if you can’t clean 20 rooms in 8 hours then you need better time management. That’s just under half an hour per room.
Never said I couldn’t do 20 rooms in an 8 hr shift. Substandard housekeeping is why many establishments do not pass inspections and I want no part of that. I would love to see an inspection report on the 20 rooms that you did in an 8 hr. shift.
Why tf am I watching this out of all the things I could watch.
Me too

a moment of silence for those all across the world watching this while in a hotel right now, my prayers are with you 🙏
oh God..😂
Thank you because I travel a lot. In fact, in a couple of weeks, I'm going to a hotel, oh god. I'm bringing my own pillow and sleeping bag
Melissa Morgan I'm in one right now
I'm in a hotel right now but my ones a posh one so mine is really clean
Also my is holiday inn express
I loved my time as a resort housekeeper- being able to just put my head down and work hard with no distractions. Most housekeepers take huge pride in their work. Everybody makes the odd mistake, usually if you get interrupted, but most of us do a very good job. Training is a factor too, if the girls aren't trained properly they don't know, and you can't force an uninterested person to do a good job.
Absolutely
True. But disinterested housekeepers shouldn’t be housekeepers.
A housekeeper can be any gender.. im a guy and a house keeper.. at the motel i work at their are 50/50 amounts of house keepers
The reason I bring wipes, and disinfectant sprays, and wallflowers plugins from bath and body works, and my house shoes. lol
@Innaa Dynamitee How?💀 I literally said that I bring disinfectant spray..... Regardless, I don't recall asking you, but *MY* priorities are just fine. Please worry about *your own* , and have a good one.✌🏾😁💯
@@itskinaraaa My mom too and she also brings a black light those things that help clean it never trust anybody to clean up stuff I'll believe it when I see it
Important is a sheet also and a pillow case. :)
The plug ins from bbw are a godsend😉
Housekeeping is probably the hardest job at a hotel. They are under payed and expected to clean a room in 30 mins or less. I use to work in hospitality for years (doing housekeeping for a few months) and i was destroyed after a shift lol. I can't speak for every housekeeper but I made sure the room was cleaned, primed and polished for every guest. but after a while.... your soul dies a bit. The system is flawed.
My sisters a head house keeper and has high expectations. It comes down to management, if they aren't doing their job right then neither will the rest of the staff. Getting sick of the job isn't a good enough excuse when someone could be paying $100+ a night out of their own pocket.
very true 30mins & you usually have about 4-7rooms on a slo day
where i work is 20 minutes
Wow! U are intelligent!
+Ruben R. Also WHO PEES ON A WALL! Jeez people are disgusting.
Marketplace is so damn savage. They ask you if the rooms clean, record every claim you've made, prove you wrong, make you explain/say you'll improve things, check up on you. If they can't get through, they get someone else to do it! PROPS!
They worse than MOMS 😇
SIKE HELL NAH: Moms that are mad and raging are hell on earth. Mothers are scary af
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
@@DailyBombs I don't like you comparing mothers/moms to nasty hotel chains...
Every country and city should have its own "Marketplace" at work 24/7.
@@KILLRXNOEVIRUSthey were comparing the show I believe
I worked at the holiday inn, in Guelph. The filth and contamination was absolutely appalling. For example the bedding was not washed after every use, if the bedding looked clean, they would just reuse it, for as long as possible. I began to take notes about what I saw, and what I though could be improved. I did a test, too. I found a used condom on the ground in the stairwell, under the stairs, and I left it there to see how long it would take for someone to pick it up. Well a month later I made a meeting with the hotel manager, and the head of housekeeping to talk about what I've noticed, and what I thought could be done. Well, they did not appreciate the concerns I raised, and since I wasn't unionized, they fired me on the spot. That was 5 years ago, and I bet that used condom is still lying in that stairwell.
DO NOT STAY AT THE HOLIDAY INN!!!
So this confirms Inside Edition’s findings where hotels don’t clean bedding?
I know this video is like nearly 9 years old at this point; but it's good to know that even all the way back then, Super 8 (now one of the sub-brands of Wyndham, which I currently work for) took improving their cleanliness protocols seriously enough to rank all the way at the top!
When I was a kid, my mom watched a show like this. Since then, she always brought mini bottles of lysol spray, and packs of lysol wipes. I'm an adult now, and I can't stay in a hotel without disinfecting every surface I can.
ikr
You do it right
+Demi vinegar, wayer and alcohol ARE CHEMICALS - EVERYTHING IS!
lol.. right!
nice mom
It's idiotic to expect a hotel, especially these lower class ones, to scrub the walls. That would take to much time and would be inefficient. So as long as you don't lick the walls you should be all right.
Hunt Guy If i were promised a CLEAN room, yes I would.
Jesus Velarde
It wouldn't be the first promise a big company has broken to you. So why make a big deal about it now? It'll happen again.
Hunt Guy Because this is a bigger deal since it can impact your health, and just because other companies break promises does not mean that I will get less mad about the promise being broken. You wouldn't want to get herpes.
Hunt Guy I'm more concerned about the way rooms are looked after, than I am about every last germ being dead. As humans, we're covered with germs day in, and day out. I could give a rat's ass about germs, unless shit is all over the walls, I could care less.
I stayed in a Holiday Inn one time, and at 3AM, the fire alarm started chirping, I couldn't ignore it. It was all I could do was to keep from smashing that thing to pieces. I couldn't take it, so I called the front desk. It was the manager, and he was so apologetic, that I couldn't be pissed at him. He was more frustrated with Holiday Inn, because he'd been having problems like that off, and on for months. He suggested that they go and replace all the batteries once a year.. good, or bad. After a year, they're done.
The idea was shot down of course. The company was concerned about batteries that had a few more months left in 'em, and getting replaced for no reason. He said he gave up the quest, and now he replaces them when they're obviously screwed.
Holiday Inn lost at least one customer. They wouldn't even give me a break on the cost of the room. You better believe this guy filled out that questionnaire they leave that goes to corporate. In it, I let them know I wasn't a happy camper, and they'd NEVER see me in there again. And to this day, they've never seen me back again, and I'll never go back in the future.
D F
You know how you said you wouldn't care unless there was shit all over the wall, well there was urine which is still pretty bad. I don't care about every last germ, but at least make it safe.
I worked in a hotel as a house keeper and had to quit because I wasnt aloud to really clean properly. So I did what I could but never cross contaminated yuck.
I really feel for people who have to work at this job.
It could be very interesting to maybe implement a UV light system in each room, powerful enough to at least light sterilize everything
I would love to see these two clean a room in under 45mins then test it
Bubba bitty yes it is easy to judge other work let them clean poor people
Samita Dhungana yes but 45 mins is w good time to clean something properly, im little and i can probably clean better than these so-called "cleaners"
Bubba bitty Right i worked in a 5 star 5 diamond hotel before here in tx, and they only gave us 40 mins per room, big rooms with walk in showers, and hot tubs. I was always late because it takes much longer than that. Some guest leave the rooms a hot mess that housekeepers are left to clean for only 40 mins. smh! housekeepers should not be rushed if they want the room cleaned right.
Especially when people demand checking in early. They don't get it! You rush them what do you expect.
I only got 30 minutes to clean my rooms and i most definitely cleaned as best as I could. I did much better than the housekeepers in this video
my family makes fun of me when i took cleaning supplies, pillow cases and sheets to our motel/hotel stays...
Well your smart but not your family
they are like many, they trust that other people will do their job well....what in reality is not the case in many instances.
Girl same I bring my own towels pillow sheet and blankets I thought I was the only one
Lolitabonita just take a sleeping bag :)
good job loli
I’m a cleaner. Easiest way to sanitize all surfaces is bleach wipes. I don’t spare. When I go stay in a hotel I take essential oil in a spray bottle called purify. Leave my socks on while walking around and aim the purify all over. The floor bedding every surface in the bathroom door handles.
As a traveller staying in hotels frequently I have come across these issues. The final straw for me was when I finally got a chance to talk to chamber maids that I knew personally. What they are told to do is horrific. If they don't, they lose their jobs. The mop is to be used on the floors and whatever they can do in the room with it. Then the vanity gets the first clean with this mop, then the toilet and lastly to clean the mop, the shower is cleaned with it and the mop gets rinsed out at the same time. (2 for 1) Here's a fun fact (not really) When the carts are in the hallway and the cleaners are working you'll see the white sheets going into the laundry bags. Have you ever seen the duvet? I will never stay at a hotel again.
I dont care about the walls being clean....just the things that we actually have to touch
SAME!!!! ITS NOT LIKE IM GONNA WIPE MY HAND UP AND DOWN ALL THE WALLS LOLOL
+Reflex Vib3Z unless there is piss on the walls
+Satyam Patel yeah true... But I don't think that was pee if ya know what I mean 0_o

If the hotel managers would give the housekeepers more time to clean the rooms, AND hire more housekeepers, then there's a really good chance the rooms would be much cleaner. At the hotel I worked at, the housekeepers were given 20 minutes per room. That's really not enough time to clean a room properly, especially if the guest stays several days.
And if they do laundry like I had to do, the sheets really aren't getting that clean. I had to literally pack the washing machine with linen and top comforters from 7-8 rooms into one load. There should be more room for the linens to agitate properly in the water, but I had to pack them so full they would never move. Trust me when I say that hotels need to really step up when it comes to time/money invested in keeping the rooms clean, and stop worrying about penny pinching.
GhostCat exactly
GhostCat in Germany they have 4 mins per room and they are clean
MichelleLovesGymnastics 4 mins per room? And it's clean? Wow, you must have some fast housekeepers. Washing the bedsheets, cleaning the toilet, cleaning the sink, cleaning the floor and etc doing it ALL in 4 mins. ITS CLEAN?
Yes because they give them only 1sponge a toilet brush and a spray bottle
after working at a motel myself, I was only given so much time per room to get the rooms clean. I was trained to be clean and did the best I could with the time given. But there was areas that could not be cleaned in the time frame given.
was let go because I was taking too long CLEANING each room.
I watched this episode while I was cleaning my fridge. I think i did a better job than I might otherwise have 😂
Rip and tear
I was always taught, "If it's worth doing, it's worth doing right!"
Please don't check my room it won't be pretty
Ehehehe..... Im not saying they shouldn't check my room, im saying they wouldnt want to..... My room is horrible......
+_Miku_Ghoul_ sorry to hear, but my room doesn't have a speck on the floor.
DONT DO MINE I FART 24/7 AND COUGH AND SNEEZE
mine is not clean either every kids worst nightmare
It can't be that bad you don't piss on walls or keep insects ( I hope )
While I love to be clean .. You can't expect a close to minimum wage workers to clean every single little thing ...and I'm sure they're pressured to do so many rooms per shift.
Smile more ;) I recognize that straight away
+Nissan L33 So you're ok with yur room being cleaned with toilet water?
+Sifaka Same water you drink out of a faucet.
GhostSpectre Same water you drink. I don't do that
+Nissan L33 In the institution(not a hotel) that I work in, the cleaning staff has to swipe their id badge before starting to clean a room and again after finishing. The problem is that this enables management to enforce "productivity" goals. Instead of taking twenty minutes to clean we are forced to average ten minutes per room. You just have to cut corners. When I originally trained thirty years ago we would clean all surfaces of sinks and toilets including the pipe and underside of the sink. Now we are told to only sanitize the "contact" points. The theory is that the germs underneath the sink or on the back side of the toilet aren't going to hurt anybody. Failure to make the quota of rooms will result in disciplinary action leading up to termination of your employment. People are desperate to hold down their jobs and will skip breaks and even work after punching out to catch up. Your hunches are correct.
Im sure when these hotels agreed to do the ranking and have their names documented in a video they werent expecting her to bring a whole biologist. 🤣🤣
This is why I clean my hotel room myself when I travel. I bring my own cleaning supplies.
The hotels just “ignore” two suspicious individuals wearing matching coats and hats that are glancing about furtively.
In the U.S. a SWAT team would have been called, and those two people would have been shot dead in the lobby.
and the camera crew filming them...
I promise you we have seen weirder.
Maybe they thought they were in a bad movie 🤣
Just like they ignored the urine
Final verdict : hotels are disgusting
Austin Rivers hotels are just buildings,humans did all of that
Austin Rivers not all I do all my best with my heart come to colmar in France
When I was in my early 20's I worked as a maid for a big hotel chain. I was given 25 to 30 rooms a day to do on my own. The work load was much to much. I knew of other maids with the same work load and a lot of us cut corners just to keep up with the 30 minute time frame we were given to completely clean one room. It was of course very stressful. A lot of times we just didn't have the time to do a complete cleaning.
I don’t know if it is helpful, I place all my used towels in sink or shower, I remove all the linings off the beds and place on I assuming making it easy for housekeepers. I remove all my trash and empty in the lobby trash by elevators. Basically I try to make it easier for housekeeping to come in scoop up towels, bedding
@@lashurediscussion4970 Me, too!! Friends make fun of me. Same with eating out....I make everything neat and orderly and easy to clean.
I worked for the Holiday Inn located in Kitchener, ON and they overworked housekeeping staff. We would be assigned 16 rooms a day and expected to get everything done in each room within the 8 hour shift. Needless to say, too many rooms and not enough time, led to a lot of shortcuts made so they'd get done in time. It's impossible to get the rooms really clean if you're only given 15-20 minutes to get each room done. It's long enough to get the beds changed, bathroom wiped down and the carpets vacuumed and then it's on to the next one.
An 8 hour shift gives you half an hour per room, not the 15-20 minutes you stated?
@@NinaRibenaMixedMedia are you considering that they need breaks and a lunch break or do you expect them to work without stopping
I've worked housekeeping at hotels and they are trained to have 300 rooms done in 3 hours. It's the management thinking they are saving money but have limited staff.....And limited supplies. Even your expensive hotels.....
Crystal McKinney are you really trying to say they clean a room in less than 2 minutes? Because that's definitely not true. You couldn't even change the sheets or vacuum
Samantha Landreth - I'm really saying management makes them have those rooms done with as many corners cut to meet that 3pm threshold. It's extremely sad. I personally bring my own sanitize wipes to clean my room before I use anything. Hope that's helpful ;)
Crystal McKinney 300 rooms in 3 hrs😐 that's not time to clean anything
The actual sad truth. Blame the management. Not the cleaners
There is obvious lack of training too in this video.

Forensic facts are that semen can still be detected on sheets and fabrics after several washings. As far as mattresses and carpets and walls, only heavy bleach will take away the positive response for presence of bodily fluids. Heavy bleach will damage carpets and some walls.

I always clean my hotel room starting with the door knob outside the room. Lysol spray and Lysol wipes is a must, light switches, faucets, remotes, countertops, refrigerator and microwave handles, the curtain rods used to pull the curtain too. spray Lysol on sheets too and headboards. It’s annoying I know but I absolutely have to do it . Also spray Lysol up in the air🤦🏽♀️🙄😂
Sharing information is a good thing.
The staff or any human for that matter does not have the time to wipe down every single surface every day. Also if you need a black light to find that urine how do you expect the staff to know it is there.
exactly what I was thinking
+Shannon Caldwell SUPERNATURAL
so you literally want the whole human race to pay hotel fees and expect that their expected cleanliness will not be meet? you should win a nobel prize.
You have never worked in a hotel have you or tried to clean a room. You often only have about a 10 minute period to clean the room. To do everything they said that needed to be done would take at least about 40 minutes to do a job that reached their standards. There just isn't enough time.
After a year, you would expect that the walls were cleaned at least ONCE when you think about how many people that are staying in that same room

This blows my mind! I was a housekeeper for a hotel and we never did stuff like this. Never used sponges, had hotel carts to hold all of the cleaning supplies. I was taught you clean up then work your way down. The mirrors FIRST with windex, then the sink and counters with a sanitizer, then the toilets. Lastly was showers and floors. How can these people be okay knowing they're cross contaminating?? Do they clean their houses like that as well?
Amen me too. Disgusting
It's pure malice. It takes only a modicum of common sense to know that isn't okay.
Wow, after watching this i don't wanna go to hotels anymore, and I really love hotels

Our family friend never sleeps under the covers because she spent decades workin in the industry. She said they RARELY changed the bedding, and only changed it if their were visible spots or smells. I also have a friend who doesn't eat chilli in restaurants because the chilli and some places she worked was a "continuous pot" meaning that their were always leftovers included - plus straps from the grill when making burgers

I am a clean freak, and my house is spotless at all times from top to bottom.
+Schelle7000 congratulations
I used to be a housekeeper at a hotel. It was a fairly large privately owned pretty fancy hotel. All they had us do is spray the sink and tub area down with some spray and wipe it down, wipe the outside of the toilet down, vacuum and change only the sheets and pillowcases on the beds. We were instructed to put the same bedspread back on the bed. When I stay at a motel or hotel now, the first thing I do is take the bed spreads off and throw them in the corner then call room service and ask for more sheets. I always bring a can of Lysol with and spray the hell out of the place then leave for a while so it can air out. I spray EVERYTHING, door knobs, the remote control, the knobs on the lamps, the the headboards on the bed, the walls, the floors, the desks, chairs, EVERYTHING! ! Then I go around and wipe everything off again with disinfectant wipes including paper stuff like the phone book! I am a complete germaphobe!
+KingPancake yeah me neither
good idea on asking for new bed sheets ill remember that!
I bring my own comforter with for warmth though! :)
😉 i am a Germaphobe too.
70% rubbing alcohol works far better then lysol on germs.
( I had H1N1 flu wayback when, it spun off into other illnesses, i was sick 4 months! thats why i am now phobic)
I don’t understand germaphobes and I never will.
Please keep up these inspections we love your show
I don't work at a hotel but clean rental accommodations. It's just disgusting. Pre Covid, we didn't change duvet cover and patterned pillowcases, we did it only when it has stain. My coworkers don't sanitize doors, don't clean drain, use same rags in kitchens and bathrooms...
We wash them but who would wipe dishes with the rags that you used to clean poops on a toilet before at home? The faster you do, the better cleaner you will be considered so they just try to make it "look" clean as fast as possible then brag how fast they are.
I sanitize all surfaces, clean all drains, bring my own rags for kitchen.
Now I'm employed and work with team members but I really wanna have my cleaning company then do it on my own.
Why am i watching this
saaaame
I have no idea either 😂
Because yo wanted to
..... To know how dirty it might be in hotel......
Because, we all stay in hotels.
I mean a clean room is one thing but this lady is something else.
true, like if you can't see it without a black light, then no need to worry, get some medicine and your fine
How do they expect hotel staff to clean something they can't see
+The Assassin guys wtf is wrong with u guys, even tho it's something they can't see, is still high dense bacteria that can eventually affect our health which can results some real serious diseases. The hotel cleaners should be trained to use blacklist as proficient as the can be, like it says in the video.
+Rayan “Cobra” FR we can't really do anything about it, you go outside and you're walking in air that's possibly worse
+Star your missing the point some of these bacteria's are resistant to (antibiotics) = medicine.
So when I was at the Paris in Vegas last July I was told by housekeeping that they are only given a certain number of clean linens and towels. She said she has 27 rooms to clean but only 16 sets of clean linens. It was disgusting! Plus they were only allowed to give one set of towels for a single guest no matter how many days they were to stay at the hotel… I was there for 6 days! Absolutely absurd especially with the price tag!!!!
First let me say, I struggle with overnight stays in hotels/motels because of shared germs and uncleanliness. For years, I’ve taken matters into my own hands with gloves, paper towel, Clorox cleaners, Lysol spray, disposable bed linen and my own bath towels. Sounds tiring❓ It is. So I don’t travel much.
Me, too!
Same
Yessss... I always take my cleaning products with me. I start wiping down the entire room before we even get comfortable. Even the walls and doors. You'd be shocked at how gross they are after spraying and wiping.
@@nikkitalley3949 quite a chore but it’s the only way to relax so that the purpose of the trip is enjoyed
"Marketplace was here. I guess nobody else was" I almost cried laughing omg BURNNNN
???
+The Cookie She said, That the marketplace was there (to clean it) since no one else was.
17:58
Lmao i read your comment as i watched the video. What a coincidence.
this made think how dirty my house is
lol same
same
Same
Big difference is that you don't have a high turnover of people. Think when one in the family has winter flu and how it spreads in the home. The very same would happen in a hotel which is why a higher level of sanitation is required compared to the domestic home
you're so right
I was a housekeeper at a Best Western here in the states a few years ago and after that experience I will NEVER sleep in another hotel/motel anywhere ever again. I sleep in my car.
Thank you! Very enlightening!
Haha.... Glad I watched this... Tomorrow I'm going on vacation... I'm bringing cleaning supplies...
Desperate Doodling omg sammmeee
Desperate Doodling except you said this 7 months ago😂
Cuz every hotel totally has a black light that they give every housekeeper so they can check the whole room. Like really??? Welcome to the real world.
You're house is probally dirtier than that, WHAT THE...
I think that's one of the points, that the hotels need to equip the housekeepers with tools they need
+roricthelame black lights are not that expensive at all.. They are like $8 and that's about the same for any cleaning spray they are provided??
SimplyCrazy your*
Some hotels do supply their maids with blacklights and no the price doesn't go up. Why shouldn't you want a clean room for $200 a night?!
I would love to see an update on this... since covid
I had worked in hotels for more than 5 years, and I can tell you that there is no hotel in North America can meet your expectations, no matter what brands what levels. Everything you see in hotels just looks clean, that's it, and that's their highest standard. Don't expect they clean every inch of the room, don't expect they change the comforters and pillows, the only thing they will change are the sheets and covers. Don't expect they will clean what you can't see by your eyes. If you know any housekeepers, just ask them how many minutes they are required to finish a room. Then I bet you can imagine how they clean the rooms everyday. You never know what's their laundry machine just washed before they wash your sheets and pillow cover(very possibly rag with sh1t.) BTW, you never know what's in their ''sanitizer'' bottle, mostly just something can bubbling, so if you have to stay in hotels especially during this COVID, just try to avoid to touch anything in the hotel room.
My mom always brings extra sheets for the hotels
Cool
mines toooo
your mom rocks. I bet she keeps snacks and water in her car too and mints in her purse
+MuckedUpCow I'm not convinced you've watched the video...
my mum trusts hotels she says their clean..me and my sister are the ones who bring extra sheets, cups, plates, spoons and all the important things
This happens because the housekeepers are jammed full of rooms with not enough of time to complete their work. Management's the cause. Cheap people not wanting to pay more people to lighten the job. Plus some are lazy I suppose.
I have been asking this for a while now... why not use more than 1 person to clean the rooms because it would work
Or high staff turnover so no one has the time to be trained well.
I've done housekeeping. 16 rooms per day in 7 1/2 hrs.
You have 5 minutes to clean a room..
I worked at many hotels and you are right.
Big thank you. You did a good job checking all this expensive hotel. I appreciate you. Good bless you. Mis
*Id love to have one of those testing machines!! I looked in Amazon and the ones I seen are $900 and more lol! But I can't find one that uses the swabs like he's using either! Idk... it would be fun to mess around with but yeah I don't need one lol!*
the answer is to employ more cleaning people or pay them way more, give them more time to clean, and give them better cleaning materials.
Cleaning supplies, number of staff and time have nothing to do with a hotel with dirty linens.
They get a certain amount of rooms a day to clean.
No excuses just clean the damn room and bathroom, is what they sign up for, they knew what salary they were going to get. It's not like the government or company is obligating them,Mir they don't like the job than there are other people looking for a job like that.
+TheFedericohiguain2 They sign up for a job since they don't have many options. Generally they are hispanic women who are trying to make ends meat. My mother has been cleaning hotels for over 20 years and she has always tried to do the best that she can. In the beginning she would do 9 rooms in around 8 hours but she would make sure everything was spick and span. Later management needed less people since they felt that it would be better and more cost efficient. There are women who had to do 20+ rooms in 8 hours and the hotel costs $300+ per room. My mom has seen many women come and go in those hotels since the work is to hard and the demand is to high and also they are paid the minimum wage.
I agree. these "measures" the companies say they're taking are probably just retraining their employees when they actually need more staff and better tools
people may think I'm crazy, but this is why I bring my own cleaning products and sheets to hotel/motel rooms.
TF?
u smart
I'm doing that now omg
Your smart.
+Live Love Laugh DIY's, tutorials, and more! You're**
6:54 - 8:13 This is why my family and I use our own pillows and blankets when we go to a hotel…..
If hospital rooms are tested your trust will disappear!!!! It’s a placebo to think that hospitals are clean, you go there pray for the best , heal quickly and get your discharge!
If you think hotels are bad, try the restaurants, especially the kitchen.
Bacteria is everywhere, luckily we have built in defenses.
The immune system can only do so much >.
+Vinayak Joshi It does less if you sanitize everything and never get exposed to germs.
+Vinayak Joshi I have no immune system :/
+Joshua Chambers Dang, and your still alive? TEACH ME YOUR WAYS!!
+Vinayak Joshi That's not true. That doesn't even make sense... More foods, more germs, higher density, higher population, closer proximity. The only think that is dependent is allergies, and they differ per environment.
I don't know which hotel it was at, but my dad found a dead rat under the mattress of his bed. Like how the heck do you miss that??
Not sure if they change the matresses after every time
Isaac Ludu Probably not.
that is just gross
+Whiteleaf Arts then there would be maggots yuck
There was a cockroach under my bed at a Best Western and it died under my sock. It was my only pair.
I saw a documentary on hotels and how they are cleaned back in the ‘80’s. I don’t remember who was doing the series. They did say that if you were not sure of those plastic clear glasses that are wrapped in cling wrap...put them under the hot water and let the water run for 2 minutes.
Just stayed in a nasty super 8 last night and the sheets weren't even changed. There was pubic hair and a ton of stains on it. I was disgusted. They brought us "clean" sheets and they were all stained up
Yeah, but look at this from other perspective, who does all that stuff? Not housekeeping obviously. Cleaning is on the one hand - but the guests are those who first should start to learn how to behave in hotels too. The urine stain on the wall? People tend to disrespect things that aren't their property, I worked at housekeeping and most of you would wouldn't believe how dirty some rooms are after certain guests.
I agree with you. And hopefully, people who don't will start to learn respect property that isn't theirs. Just because the room doesn't belong to the individual staying there, doesn't mean it's okay to pee on the wall or let their children mark up the walls, chairs, bedding, etc. with the pens provided in the rooms with the "Note to self" pads. That stuff is not easy to clean and none of us want to spend a lot of time trying to clean it up.
maybe a baby peed, and other times people were just sleeping and people sometimes drool plus even if the person did it the hotel's responsibility in the health of their costumers/guests
I agree with you.as a housekeeper in a cheap motel I encounter a lot of very dirty rooms.no matter how I clean it there is still a thing that I cant just completely removed like the old smell of a smoke room or pit room.some costomer cooked inside their rooms so the walls ,the countertop are very messy and oily.huh.they thinks its their own house
I agree. What are they expecting? A $5oo deep clean on a $1oo room??
Sure theres going to be bad guest but that doesnt excuse the way you or they should be properly cleaned.. especially for $80 plus a night! As an adult It's common sense on how to clean things proper. Take initiative.. if you are being trained wrong say something or do it better than the person who trained you and you'll eventually take that person's job.
This is pretty gross! I used to work at a restaurant when I was in high school. I always thought "Oh well, I'm sure the manager will take care of that" And I had some not many, some customers getting sick after eating at the tables or using the bathrooms. I decided to go up the chain of command. After six months they didn't respond to my concerns, so I took it upon myself to give the topic to my reporter friend. After a year finally, the restaurant started providing better cleaning products and training all staff on wearing/ changing disposable gloves, disinfecting countertops, etc. IF YOU SEE SOMETHING HAPPENING SPEAK UP AND MAKE IT HAPPEN, that way we can stay healthy.
I go crazy when I see restaurant staff take a filthy rag to clean the table. Cross contamination every where!!! We all want cheap food and the industry takes short cuts. If this is how they clean tables in front of everyone what goes on in the kitchen?
Worked at a really popular indoor water park/ hotel in the USA for about a week as a housekeeper a while back, realized it was sickening, the only thing they cleaned between every visit were the sheets, pillowcases, mirrors, towels, microwave and windows..... not the comforter or bed protector.... not the pillows, not the closet blankets, not the shower curtain, the counters and sink get a quick wipe with the mirror cloth. Anything aside from the sheets and pillowcases only get changed when they are to be filthy enough for customers to notice through the sheets. The housekeepers were electronically tracked and punished for taking more than a few minutes to sanitize and clean or for ordering too many replacement comforters/ curtains because it "takes too long" This is a hotel people where paying hundreds a night and I was told when I asked "people come here for the fun and do not care about the rooms" by the management. This is not all the fault of the housekeepers, for the most part it is the management punishing workers for taking too long and providing improper training because they can not keep quality staff working under punishing conditions, How is one housekeeper supposed to gather supplies and clean 15-30 family or multi room suites to satisfaction in only 5 hours? That is not physically possible and if a housekeeper can not make it pass inspection in that time they are punished... and there is really not any deep cleaning done there because the management refuses, and the hotels I have stayed at are just as filthy.
If you stay at a hotel, bring gloves and examine the bedding and curtains yourself and bring your own sanitizing spray. Check the comforters and pillows, the curtains and any blankets, better yet order all fresh bedding and shower curtain the day you get there.
Someone needs to pee “marketplace was here” in that pee stain room, then come back every year to check if it’s still there.
Lol 😂🤣
Welcome to the Cumshot Inn.
That’s not pee, that’s squirt 🤣
Yeah...my mom used to clean rooms and never use those comforters. They don't get cleaned. They're meant as a topper. Not for actual use. Yuck 😣
Emy Anderson Yeah I worked at the Marriott and they throw the comforter on the floor and then back on the bed and that's only ONE of the many many gross things they would do lol
Emy Anderson ممارسات حنسىة
Emy Anderson 😖
Damn if their in Toronto, imagine how bad american cities hotels are lol
I live in Markham! ☺️ and I sometimes I see those hotels when I go to downtown
*they're
I LIVE IN MARKHAM TOO!
yay!
G I live in Markham too. But I'm not Asian I am black
I learned NEVER use the comforter that's on the bed. Take it off, they NEVER clean it and you can imagine what's on it.
I will be sharing this with all family and friends.Very 😷
