  • Anticipate and cater to guest preferences—such as pillow types or additional pillows, hypoallergenic options, and VIP touches—without needing to be asked.
  • Follow strategic routines to optimize room turnaround time—cleaning high-touch, high-impact areas first and using timed flow to maintain both speed and thoroughness.
