Hidden Hotel Secrets: Confessions Of Housekeeping Staff

This Bathroom Is Occupied

It’s standard for housekeeping to clean a guest’s rooms and bathrooms during their stay at a hotel. Most people assume that the facilities they’re paying for will be relatively private. Guests certainly would not expect for a stranger from housekeeping to use their suite’s toilet while they are cleaning the bathroom area.

But human nature takes over for housekeepers just like it does for the rest ous. That means that when it is time to go, it is time to go. Housekeeping does not have the time to go to designated staff bathrooms every time the urge strikes. And when they’re in a guest’s room, that bathroom is both easily accessible and quicker to get to. The good news: housekeepers are such professionals that they will make sure everything is nice and tidy when they’re done. Guests could never tell that they were even in there.
