Staying at a hotel might feel like a free pass to avoid any form of housework and do whatever you want to do.
But a hotel worker has shared that guests should be conscious of some things, so they don't make unnecessary work for staff.
Trisha Pérez Kennealy, owner of Inn at Hastings Park in the US, has revealed the one thing she would never do as a guest.

And it has to do with ordering room service, which could be considered one of the best parts of staying at a hotel.

"It drives me bananas when people put the food out in the hall and don't let anyone know, resulting in it sitting in the hallway for hours."

Santiago Leon, the general manager at The Robey, shared some advice with Business Insider around what to look for when checking into a hotel.
"A simple but telling red flag is when light bulbs are not working in the common areas," he told the publication.
"As minuscule as it may sound, I think it speaks volumes about how well the hotel is maintained, its budget, management, and attention to detail."
He also warned guests to be wary if the hotel doesn't ask for ID, and if pre-arrival communication or assistance with any inquiries is also lacklustre, it's another minus.
"Safety has to be a top priority for hotels," he added.
