OHIO: Hidden camera catches Hilton & other hotels with nasty drinking glasses - (HealthInspections.com)
February 4, 2008 – 7:24 pmBeware of the drinking glasses in your hotel rooms. Yet another television story has found that the glasses don’t get washed.
WCPO in Cincinnati borrowed an idea that was first tried by a Fox television station in Atlanta. They placed hidden cameras into hotel rooms to watch housekeepers in action.
WCPO found that housekeepers aren’t doing their jobs. Instead of washing the drinking glasses in guest rooms, they’re just wiping them off and reusing them. And it’s happening at big name hotels such as the Hilton.
The footage is enough to make you cringe. In one case, it shows a housekeeper wiping the bathroom floor with a towel then using the same towel to wipe off drinking glasses.
WCPO found glasses being reused at hotel rooms in Ohio, Kentucky, Kansas City, Phoenix, and Baltimore.
