Cleaning
From the moment a guest walks through the doors of a hotel the level of cleanliness is something they are aware of. A carpet with bits on it, a greasy reception desk, smeary lift controls, and corridors that have not been vacuumed don’t give the confidence that the room is going to be any better.
Cleaning Bathrooms
