Grin! Its all about time. Everything needs to be done now. I found out the manager get a bonus for the work being done before a certain time so its push, push, push to get everything done as soon as possible. Their favorite worker can do 4 rooms an hour.
I have one housekeeper who can do 1 room in 4 hours. But I pay her by the job, not by the hour, and she does a magnificent job. She's just obsessive about cleaning (she'd almost do it for free) and the guests are always commenting on how clean the room is. Luckily, since I'm still putting a "dead" day after each guest leaves, she has plenty of time to clean at her own pace.
No twin, unfortunately. She and my sister went together to have a big yard sale a couple of weeks ago. She spent the whole night before the sale, cleaning all my sister's items (which my sister thought were already clean). She rents 2 mini-storage units she uses to store stuff she doesn't have room for at home. She goes every week and cleans everything in each storage unit!! The sad part is, she's my age (66) so I don't know how many more years she can keep it up!
Good housekeeping is hard to find, we are lucky too. Guess it depends on how big the room is but ours teams up and 2 can throughly clean a room an hour.. as long as its getting done..be happy!
I have 2 apartments like that, but also have 3 "suites" that are just bedroom and bathroom (these 3 were added after your long-ago visit). I've cleaned the smaller ones myself, many times, in 1 hour each. But I'm happy for "miss perfect" to take 4 hours.
LOL. A well-deserved slot win. Much respect to her and her level of cleaning. <3
We have one of those as well. She mostly cleans our cottages and she is there ALL DAY! But she is meticulous and we get compliments about how clean and fresh smelling the cottages are. We pay her by the job as well.
