We are becoming germicides here at SBR.........thanks to DOUG.

This shit is old, but true FH ! I'm not a "germicide", but does it surprise you that your glass is cleaned with Windex and your used towel ?

[pavyracer]

Also never sit on the seat of a taxi without wiping it with a clorox towel because the person before you may have shit in his pants.

Doug, I'm with you............I've never drank out of a hotel glass.


I hate to leave the house............

[Doug]

I much prefer cheap wrapped plastic cups to glasses, never saw fresh glasses on a maid's cart, and they'd need a ton of them, so the undercover camera guys are correct....that glass is "washed" in your sink.

[DeeWizzle]

Don't use the coffee maker either.

[pavyracer]

Never use the toilet, sink, bathtub and do not sleep under the sheets in your hotel room. Also don't touch the mirror or the door knobs or curtains.

[DeeWizzle]

Never stay in hotels

[Doug]

Don't use the coffee maker either.

sounds reasonable to me, unless you wash it yourself...still iffy, though !

I always stiff hotel maids, **** those non-English speaking, illegal foreign broads !

I leave $2 or $3 on a pillow a day if I'm staying in a nice place














its the least I can do for them when they're pulling my used condom wrappers out of the little garbage cans

Hotel maids, although often providing "invisible" services during your stay, can and should be tipped for good service. Tip correctly, and you show your appreciation and ensure the chambermaid will take special care with your room. Tip incorrectly, and misunderstandings can arise. Here's how to tip a hotel maid.
Difficulty: Easy
Time Required: Five Minutes
Here's How:

1. Tip daily. The same maid may not service your room every night of your stay. If you wait until check-out time to tip for the entire stay, your tip may not go to the right person.
2. Mark your tip clearly. Leaving cash or change in the room is not a clear enough signal, as a hotel maid must be very careful about taking anything from your room. Enclose the tip in a sealed envelope (check the desk drawer for hotel stationary) and mark it "Chambermaid."
3. Leave your tip in an obvious place. On the television, on a pillow, or on the bathroom counter are all common places to leave the maid's tip.
4. Tip according to service and hotel type. In a luxury hotel, tip about $3-5 each night. For an average hotel, $1-2 per night is fine. If the maid goes above and beyond in service, such as providing extra soaps and shampoos or folding towels in the shape of swans (for example), feel free to leave a dollar or two more.
5. Don't tip for poor service. Like all tips, if you're not satisfied with the service the maid is providing, don't leave a tip (or reduce the amount you would tip).

Tips:

1. Leave a tip in cash, not with spare change.
2. If you can't find an envelope, or the hotel doesn't provide one, wrap the bills in a blank sheet of paper, labeled appropriately.
3. When you travel internationally, find out how to write "maid" or "Chambermaid" in the local language so you can label the envelope appropriately.

What You Need:

* Envelope or paper
* A couple of dollars per day
