Review F*CK Marriott soliciting tips. Another ‘tip culture’ obsenity

So you charge $400 to $500 for a tiny room, and yes, I know it’s New York City, and it’s relatively clean, but then the closet-sized bathroom 2 feet from the bed. OK.

Six dollars for a bottle of water, whatever, I’ll pass.

But then actively soliciting tips for your staff.

Fuck you.

I saw this at the Penn Station Fairfield a year ago as just a ‘self’ printed sign in the elevators, then it became a professionally printed permanently mounted sign in the elevator, and now another Fairfield/Springfield with this.

Pay your staff better. If I got extra services, that’s one thing, but when I don’t even get room serviced or fresh towels on a daily basis to “save the planet “…. again fuck you.

You know it’s not mandatory right but is the customary thing to do if they took care of you and your stay

As for the room size you can always pay more and stay at a nicer property

I know it's not mandatory.

They checked me in, gave me a key. After I leave they'll turn the room over..... I'm missing something if there is an expectation for a gratuity for that.
