Welcome to askhotels where you can ask your questions of the various hotel employees who are here and happy to assist you.

Hotel employees, please flair your username with Hotel Type/Your title/# of years in the industry.

Guests, feel free to flair yourself. You can include your usual type of travel (business, conventions, leisure, etc.) and whatever else you want us to know about you.

Reference guide for guests on job titles:

HK- Housekeeper

HHK- Head Housekeeper

MN- Maintenance or Engineering

FDA- Front desk associate or agent

NA- Night auditor

GSR or GSA- Guest Services Representative, Associate, or Agent

FDS- Front Desk Supervisor

FDM- Front Desk Manager

FOM- Front Office Manager

GM- General Manager

An 'A' at the front of a title typically stands for 'Assistant.'

Just a reminder to everyone, be civil!

Employees, be kind to our guests, they are our guests after all. Unless they're being needlessly shitty. Then have at them. Mods will turn a blind eye.

Guests, be kind to our employees! We're all here by choice to help you out!
