Housekeeper

Scott's Superior Inn & Cabins
Ontonagon, MI
05.2012 - 08.2012

I was a housekeeper here at Scott's Superior Inn with one of my friends. Together we would clean the room, take out the trash, fold the laundry and make sure that all the rooms were properly cleaned for when the person either came back for being out for the day, checking in, or checking out. There would be times where we had to clean the window, vacuum the floor, and dust the stuffed animals that were hung on the walls. The main building had two main hallways that had the rooms down them and then downstairs there was the guest housing that people could stay in. I enjoyed my time here very much and am glad that I got the opportunity to work here.
