We know that, somehow, you’re able to anticipate what your guests want before they even know they want it. We also know how tough it is to consistently deliver an outstanding guest experience whilst managing a busy reception, but you make it happen nonetheless, and you somehow never forget those extra touches because it’s all about the details. I guess you’re the kind of person that embraces change as opposed to being scared of it.
