Tipping not the norm for hotel housekeepers
By Tammy La Gorce, New York Times
The tip does not have to be big — $1 to $5, says the American Hotel and Lodging Association. But less than a third of hotel guests leave any money for the housekeepers.
The hotel association publishes a gratuity guide on its website that offers suggestions for tipping everyone from valet attendants to bellhops.
But why are housekeepers often forgotten? A common explanation is that they are out of sight — that travelers are likely to tip only employees they directly interact with. But another cause may be a simple lack of awareness.
Selfish, self-centered folks with a lousy upbringing.
Same kind of miserable guest in VHR’s who create noise at all hours, drink to oblivion, overcrowd, park up and down the street especially during snow removal, and don’t give a rats behind for the neighbors.
