I have 2 part-time housekeepers. They are fighting over who gets a tip left in the room. One cleaned the room yesterday morning. The other one cleaned the room today, after last night's guest left. She found a $20 tip left by last night's guest. But it's not what you think.
The one who found the tip and cleaned the room today says it should go to yesterday's housekeeper, that it's a thank you tip for the room being left so clean yesterday.
The other won't take it, says it was left for the one who has to clean up the room today.
So I guess I need to set a policy on this, for in the future. Personally, when I leave a tip, it's for the one who has to clean up after me. If I arrive and the room's clean, that's just as expected and I'm not tipping the one who cleaned it before I arrived. I clean it for the one who has to clean up after ME.
But what do you think?
