If any of you ever want to make a hotel cleaner's day, take off the used bedsheets and leave them in a pile when you leave, it makes cleaning the room just that tiny bit easier ^^ Nothing delighted me more back when I was a cleaner than a nice pile of bedsheets sitting there just waiting for me!
One problem with most hotels, is that the cleaningpeople don't get enough time to clean the rooms/ bathrooms. They have to litteraly run between the rooms to have them ready for the next guests..Sad it is and they are underpaid as well. Kudos to those that works in the hotels
Thank you, I used to work in a hotel and my supervisor had us walking as fast as possible without running! However if there was no one around, sometimes I was running, simply to save time and get the rooms as clean as possible and finish before the next guests check in or return for the day.
It's also physically demanding, and if one person is hurting anywhere, it slows everyone down drastically. I've been the cleaner who hurts, and I know how it drags the entire team down!
As a person that has a mum that works in a hotel and cleans it is true. My mum gets around 30 minutes of cleaning per room and when it comes to rooms that people are inside and she needs to clean them it's 5-10 minutes.However I do think my mum doesn't get underpaid but she does need more days off she has two kids me and my sibling and three pets in the house. I know a lot about these things because I've been to my mum's work and we were cleaning till 6 PM from 9 AM
Hi Auri! I worked as a Zimmer Maedchen (cleaning girl) in Germany. We generally worked as a team of 3/-bathrooms/-beds/-dusting & vacuuming. We averaged about 28 rooms (4 were single rooms) from 8a-2p (we also took breaks/lunch). Each day we would focus on one thing to 'deep' clean, (i.e.--like move furniture and clean behind/vacuum under, or dust up high, etc.). You have to keep track of the rooms (which are vacated, multi-night occupancy and empty rooms), and which you can enter or not. It is so sad to me that many do not value cleaning people, especially when they do a good job. Leave a tip for the cleaning crew, it is a small gesture that goes far. My husband laughs at me, because I always inspect our hotel rooms before settling in (I have stories to tell...) and wash the glasses before using them. I have even pre-cleaned a room, and bring my own pillow case and wash/face cloths. Pack flip-flops or house shoes, because you don't want to walk in a hotel room barefoot. I am so glad that Aurikatariina is gaining popularity! You are so positive and bring a pride to cleaning that is so needed, especially during this pandemic when we are spending more time than ever at home.
@@fadwaamr404 O.k.: Bedsheets that were obviously not changed. Another time my husband walked from the bed to the bathroom and his clean white socks were black on the bottom. At one hotel is was so cold in the room, we couldn't regulate the AC, so we turned it off. When we returned hours later, the whole room smelled like vomit. Curtains (3 layers of curtains...) that smelled so strongly like smoke we had to leave the hotel. There are more...one had to do with poo, but I'll stop here.
Currently working part time as a housekeeper at a small hotel in Germany (15 rooms cleaned by 2 people between 8.00 to 11.30) and yes, it's such a shame that you're basically invisible to the guests most of the time. Although some of them do tip, which is always very much appreciated :D
I get really angry when people look down on or demean cleaners. It's one of the most important jobs there is. This was evidenced when i first worked in the Civil Service; the office boss took a day off at short notice, and no one realised. The cleaners were short staffed one night and the place was In uproar!
As former house keeper there's nothing more smile inducing about the day then seeing how the customers at least TRIED to clean up their mess before they leave.
Especially after anime conventions! You should see how some of the rooms look...! I always pick up my trash, put all of the towels in the same spot, and, if I have time, dress down the bed. (I don't always have time during a con but I at least don't leave a giant mess!)
it makes me uncomfortable to leave the room messy. i wouldn't do this at home so why should i do this in another place where i am a guest. house keepers have so much work to do- i try to make it a bit easier for them.
I always clean my hotelroom BEFORE getting comfortable. I bring my lysol spray and wipes and a little cleaning tablet to refresh the toilet. I also bring MY OWN pillowcases. So the first 15 minutes, I put on my gloves, I open the windows and start spraying and dusting everything real quick. All while my boyfriend is just sitting on the bed looking at me like I am crazy.
I don’t go that far but I bring those paper towels that come infused with dish soap to wash the glasses before I use them and I always wipe the remote and some key surfaces with an alcohol wipe.
As a former housekeeping. This is amazing we don't actually get too take the time in cleaning rooms this good. 15-20mins to a room before the next check in if you're by yourself. 10mins if you're lucky to get some help. So you can imagine trying to haul ass. When a gross guest leaves the room disgusting. I'm not sure how it is other parts of the world. But this is amazing.
Former housekeeper also! You just don't have time for that. Most of thses jobs happen during the winter or on that day you happen to have time. Some important tips were missed however, such as cleaning behind the bed, furniture and cleaning light switches and door handles and drawers. Some rooms are fairly simple like this and just require a quick clean but others require several trips to the bin, to clean the bin and wall because there are milk and coffee stains all over. Scrub the bath like crazy because the guest used soap and oils and never rinsed the bath tub. Replace bedding because the guest was so sweaty that despite the pillow protectors you can smell them. Clean the drawers out thoroughly because they left something sticky or sandy inside... The list goes on. God forbid your housekeeping supervisor or next guest finds a mark of the side of a chair, something under the bed or right behind the curtains because you simply didn't have time to check when cleaning a ridiculous check out...
When I used to clean hotel rooms I loved it when the guests would leave all the bedding and the towels, facecloths in the tub for me. One less step for me to take. It was a back breaking job day in day out! Those ladies deserve so much respect!
As one who also has been a cleaner in four different hospitality institutions, as well as in a hospital, I have to agree with you---on the rare occasions guests would strip the beds and leave everything in one area, it seemed to make the whole day go better!
I was a maid in Spain (my country) and in Scandinavia. The working conditions in Spain are terrible, working more than 8 hours a day, getting only 4 hours salary, guests being nasty. In Scandinavia conditions were right and guests were more clean and respectful. Thank you for your videos
I've cleaned rooms in a few budget hotels and a five star hotel, and I can tell you that hotel rooms are filthy. The blankets are usually only washed when there is visible dirt on them, the curtains and furniture are never cleaned, and because they are never given enough time to clean the room, housekeepers cut a lot of corners. Just in the five star hotel, I've seen someone clean drinking glasses with Windex and a few would put a dirty bathrobe back like it was clean for a new guest.
Same. I worked at an apartment hotel and in one work day I was supposed to clean 28 apartments. It was ridiculous. Certainly not a thorough clean like this. You have to cut a lot if corners to clean that many rooms or apartments. Cleaners are treated like shit, the hotel try to save money by cutting down on employees.
I can believe this. I am so sorry cleaners are treated badly in general by say management/owners and are expected to clean at a rate that is not really humanly possible to clean properly and how they would probably like to. I can only imagine how much energy it would take to clean one room let alone loads of them and be treated as less than. A big shout out to your Mum Midnight, that must be so much work for her.
@@_VC._ Just wanted to say your Mum is a superhero! I am sorry that she feels this way and she is treated badly but she is awesome to be able to keep going despite it all...
I remember when I went to Disney world when I was younger, the cleaning lady would always fold my bankie in a different animal each day, and it was one of the best parts about the trip lol. I still remember it so many years later
Housekeepers are only allowed to use certain products and tools and have to clean a certain way. They also only get 20-30 mins per room and have 16+ rooms a day deep cleaning every room would quickly tire them out and they would still have multiple rooms left
When i did housekeeping i cleaned everyroom like this. Cleaned all the furnitures the microwave had to do it very quickly tho it was very stressin and tiring. I had to clean the floors with rags down on my knees they said the swifters didn't clean the floors properly it was a motel
I’ve worked in two different hotels in two different countries and let me tell you that bed sheets are not changed after every guest. If there are two beds that have been pushed together and the guest has only slept on one side then they only change that set of sheets. Also showers are not deep cleaned, just a quick scrub. Also glasses are not replaced after every guest. Only if they’ve been used. Same with towels. Also a quick tip - never use the water kettle. It’s never washed and I’ve seen some housekeepers use the same dirty microfiber cloth from the bathroom to wipe the kettle. That’s why I always double check everything when I go in a hotel.
As a housekeeper that works at a small run family motel, this absolutely horrifies me. Thankfully, because we are smaller we get way more time to clean a room. New rag for everything. Always change sheets, it's not even a question. There's good places out there
yeah, can agree with this. i worked for some days in the housekeeping in a hotel and this is what we did too. but i think it can get worse. we did the best we could to clean everything well.
Sadly there is a reason for that because Managers or supervisors rush housekeeping to clean a room in 20min or less. It takes 30min or more depending on the room to get clean. So don't be to harsh on housekeeping. But yea it's recommended to always clean items just in case.
I was a GM for hotels for years. There were never enough housekeeping employees. They were expected to clean a room in 10-15 minutes. That is not enough time to clean a room. We had kitchenettes too. I would work on my days off and deep clean rooms for hours! I’d also clean rooms on working days to help train and get rooms ready faster. It’s a very hard job and most people hate cleaning.
That's so hilarious that you cleaned your hotel room. My very first real job was maid at a Holiday Inn. I still straighten up and put all my trash in one can. I will leave a few dollars tip too. Once I stayed in a 5 star hotel suite and the maid knocked and I helped her make the bed. I eventually became a nurse and continued to make beds. I love to clean!
@@Novilia1211 Then everybody would accept to clean their rooms for that huge discount and the hotel would not earn enough to survive. Do you know how much money do you need to keep a hotel working? You are saying just stupid things, hahaha. Every person is able to clean a room because it's a little space, so everybody would want the same discount. THINK BEFORE WRITING!!
@@Lidiaaa10 hmm then how about the voucher which some hotels give? Everybody can clean their room too, but I haven't seen anybody clean like katarina. Why are you so offended by it?
I’ve stayed in many a hotel because of work and rarely is a room this thoroughly cleaned whether it’s a high end hotel or not. I always appreciate the cleaner and always try to leave the room decent, but it’s unrealistic to expect a room as clean as this one in the video.
Working part-time as a hotel cleaner now, it makes me respect them a lot more. I never know how hard and tiring housekeeping job is until after the first week of my job, my body hurt all over... 😂 One of my favorite thing is guests taking off the bedsheets and putting them in a pile along with the towels, it makes it just a bit easier.
I work at premier inn and it’s VERY rare that anyone actually leaves the room even slightly tidy, so it makes me so so happy when I walk in and see the rubbish INSIDE the bin, towels left tidy and not scattered around the room and the beds stripped (this has only happened once tho).
@@Chloe-jj7vy Although I'll remake the bed on the morning of check out as that's four hours of negotiating a mess until I leave. Much better to sit on a straightened out bed.
You may not be able to clean a hotel room when you check out but the least you can do is leave it in a condition where the person coming to clean has an easy time and isnt discouraged.Otherwise,I love the work this lady does...You are helping many people...🥰
Why is no one talking about the amazing hack of the trash bag twist to keep it in place?! I've been wrestling with trash bags my whole life! THANK YOU, Auri! Little tips like that are so wonderful and helpful. I hope you know that you're making people's lives better not just by cleaning houses but by sharing this information! My bin-in-a-bin (it's one of those foot-pedal bins with a removable interior) looks so neat now, no bits of trash bag trying to escape from the sides.
Why talk about it at all? It's super easy to do, and it's not exactly rocket science---I've been using that for over 50 years now---so there's nothing to say about it.
@@jb6712 Because, believe it or not, it's not obvious to every single person. With the greatest of respect, some people have differences such as upbringing or cognitive ability that make it not obvious but a doddle once we're shown.
It's so natural for me to take the sheets off when I leave the hotel. I think as a kid I remember my mom saying this is something we do as good guests and it does not matter if we do it for a friend or relative or in a hotel. The only thing I hate is when I signal to the cleaners that I don't want a new towel, I will keep using the first one I used (in order to save water and energy) and they still change it... :(
Some hotels now have a sign saying for any towels that need washing please put in the bath tub but most premium hotels insist on washing them everyday. There is a reason for this too as I was once told by a guest they don't want their towels washed and took for granted that they only meant that day! Then found they went to reception to complain that their towels hadn't been washed for 3 days straight. Guess who looked the fool?
Waw i always keep the towels on the floor before leaving. Now will make show to have also the shits pile on a corner. I also make show no dirt is out of the bin! Why leaving all so messy wen we can do that in 5 min almost!
I wish I had you coming to my home. Got 5 kids at home (2 of which are twin toddlers, one with special needs) and I have RA (Rheumatoid Arthritis). Currently in a bad flare. I am beyond fatigued and my house is suffering. You are amazing. 💓
I wish I could help you too. I have only one child who is also special needs..but I also have had autoimmune issues for many years, only they can't figure out what it is so I'm not diagnosed still. But I can sympathize a bit because the many symptoms oh and the fatigue is awful. I hate that my hands cramp up SO badly- trying to grate a carrot, brush my hair or hold a straightener to do my hair, open a can..anything. Its tough to do the simplest things people don't even think about. Sending you love & light you're a strong momma, be kind to yourself💜
@@missruthie81 I feel for you! I had a year of being too weak to eat sometimes or brush my hair or do anything... I am so happy I'm better now and can do all the hard home job.....
What a lovely way to make people feel old. Cleaners are looked down on as a bad job to have but it’s very important and can clearly even be fun and rewarding! Thank you for the tips!
Fantastic video princess. I love your videos. I used to clean and organize, but I do not have the energy and motivation right now. My husband died, my mother died too. My kids got married and they have their families. I am alone. But I enjoy watching your videos. Sometimes I want to clean like you, but I am feeling tired. GBY. Good luck, health and many blessings.

You did an amazing job! I always strip the beds, bag the trash, and wipe down the surfaces in a hotel. As a cleaning service owner myself I always try to make their day a little easier.
Today was my first day on the job as a housekeeper, and we had a room that looked like it didn't need very much work at all. The bed didn't even look slept in. The girl training me happened to pull back the covers and look under and it was covered with shed hair. So a room that seemed clean and we only thought needed to be slightly wiped down ended up having to be a full clean
I love so much about everything you do! You are a young me!! Please just remember when time to have your children things will change and don’t be hard on yourself and don’t expect everything to always be perfect! You are adorable and such a kind and generous lady! May God bless you for what you are doing!
Just so you know, the reason it’s pink for toilet is because pink is most like red, and red is no go. As in the only place a red mop should be used is a bathroom and the only place a red cloth should be used is a toilet 🚽 it’s a high alert colour (pink in this case)
i used to be a 5 star hotel housekeeper before, 2 person should be teamwork in 1 room within 10-12 minutes! other 2 minute used to touch up. bedding must completely SMART! no stains and damage bed sheet, pillow sheets & duvet. one of these if had damaged on it, need to go down take new bedding sheets. cleaning isn't bad at all than bedding! i would loveeee to see if guest have a good/kind hearted for helping to stripped the bedding sheets and picking up their trash before checking outs. 🥺❤️ people like you is such a wonderful kind heart! couldn't say more other than helping people like us ❤️ looking forward to your next video, we love you. from The Empire Brunei Hotel ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’ve done both ( always left a clean room when I would check out) Also worked as a hotel cleaner and front desk reception. OMG some of the stuff I would have to deal with 🤮
I just started a new job as a room attendant (housekeeping) for the first time 9 days ago, but I salted watching your videos a couple months ago. This is awesome
I can tell you that hotels do not deep clean rooms as often as you’d think, maybe twice a year if you’re lucky. I worked in one where we only deep cleaned once a year. It was gross.
Hi Auri! Is it normal to make double beds with two duvets where you are? I've never seen beds made like that in America. I definitely understand wanting your own duvet, I'm quite selfish with mine.
In the Nordic countries it is common to have two duvets for a double bed. From my experience it is actually quite difficult to find king sized duvets and covers here - hubby and I like to share (except when he steals the foot area, then I don't like it), I also prefer how one duvet looks compared to two singles on a double bed.
I have the same. I hate going to hotels. It gives me the creeps. And I can't sleep at all because I'm constantly thinking of all the germs... eeeekk !!!!
Believe me , I’m a housekeeper and I wish we could. Imagine being given 18+ rooms to clean within 8 hours and they expect you to only clean a room within 35 freaking minutes or less. I always make sure to get everything when I clean a room , and get every corner but when you have your supervisor breathing down your neck about how long your taking it a pain . I can get a room done within 33 , but I now those last 2 minutes is to get all your stuff and get out , knowing that there’s probably stuff under the bed or behind the desk etc ..... I hate it .
As a housekeeper I focus my time into cleaning the bathroom thoroughly but I don't have time to clean everything well. It sucks doing half assed work all day.
@@Qrtuop As a Finnish person, I do believe cleaners have it better than in many other countries (in terms of payment and general working hours etc), but unfortunately Finnish hotels still expect cleaners to do their jobs in this 20-30 minute per room style. My friend worked as a hotel cleaner last summer and she told me they did not have time to wash the glasses properly or do deep cleaning really anywhere in the room and that it made her feel really frustrated and angry. As it is, Finnish hotels still want to provide the same check-in hours as hotels worldwide, to stay on the edge of the competition, so cleaners will not have any more time to do their jobs than anywhere else. Sadly.
I was always late, because I did a thorough job, but just couldn't be fast enough.. it's a hard job. Even if they took one room off my room list would have helped out alot.
whenever i feel too tired to clean up, your videos inspire me a lot to do something about it! i learned the dish soap x sponge from you, makes my kitchen so clean, love it.
@@Jude13able I know and my day to day, I have to decide if I'll do something or not because I'm overwhelmed. I try to do some things that won't exhaust me.
I really love your videos! Watching those cleanings is so satisfying and motivates to clean myself as well :D Also your positive nature is just a blessing to watch! Thank you
Wow I would never think about how different country’s make there beds , but the hotel beds in Canada are very different. I’ve worked in a lot of different hotels over my 15 years being a housekeeper/cleaner and I’ve never seen them done this way. Very cool !
I was a hotel cleaner for many years… so many of my co-workers would skip basic cleaning… then when I had to clean their section on their off day, I was disgusted!!! Great job!! Enjoy your videos!
love this video the most, everything is just unique and amazing just like you. i think you are the first on the planet to deep clean a hotel room before checking out. a kiss to you for that .
Just wondering… Are you wearing new gloves when you’re touching the bed? Also, do you clean all over the phone, including the headset? What about the remote controls?
I've been a both a hotel housekeeper and for private residence, I have to say I prefer private just because most hotels don't actually give you enough time to properly clean the room. I even had one manager tell me I didn't need to change the duvet between short stay guests.
I worked at a hotel where I was not allowed to change glasses between guests if there was a lot to do. Since then I can not use hotel glasses... Amazing job you did there!!
I always clean hotel rooms after a stay, I even make the bed because I always make my bed at home and it's a habit. I know the service people will be happier if the room isn't totally trashed when they come to clean.
@@tinnssaa The germaphobe in me wouldn't want to use the mattress surface and/or mattress cover as as packing surface, at least I know the sheets are changed regularly and are probably the cleaner surface.
I never heard of power paste before, but after i saw your videos i searched for it and it really is a godsend for my kitchen and bathroom, everything looks so shiny again ;; thank you
I clean my showers sinks and toilets everyday and my entire house gets vacuumed everyday mirrors I do once a week same with windows. My life is a lot easier if I just do it while I’m in the room instead of putting it off.
I thought I was the only one who cleaned my hotel room before checking out. Lol. I don't do it even a quarter as good as you, but it's an awesome gesture.
24 minutes. From the time you clock on to the time you clock off you are given 24 minutes to clean each room. Not too bad if everyone is left in a reasonable state (Microwave clean, empty kettle, ironing board and iron packed away, no spare bedding used and out of the cupboard, rubbish all ikn one bin etc) I did not enjoy my early mornings of hotel cleaning before university - so often it would run over and I would be late to class.
I know someone who worked at this exact hotel chain in Helsinki and they were given 15 minutes per room. I don't know how people can do it. I have lots of respect for the cleaners
If any of you ever want to make a hotel cleaner's day, take off the used bedsheets and leave them in a pile when you leave, it makes cleaning the room just that tiny bit easier ^^ Nothing delighted me more back when I was a cleaner than a nice pile of bedsheets sitting there just waiting for me!
Thanks for the tip.👍
And gathering all your trash into one spot or even taking it out for us!
I do that every night to ensure I get new sheets
what if they actually don't change them if they were visually clean . then we just made their day harder hhh
Same! I always do this, wash any dishes and make sure all trash is in one bin.
Thank you Auri, Because of you I started cleaning my messed up house. My mom is so happy now. Thanks for motivating me
Me too, she gives me motivation
Me too!

As a former housekeeping. This is amazing we don't actually get too take the time in cleaning rooms this good. 15-20mins to a room before the next check in if you're by yourself. 10mins if you're lucky to get some help. So you can imagine trying to haul ass. When a gross guest leaves the room disgusting. I'm not sure how it is other parts of the world. But this is amazing.

Waiting for that video eagerly!
I love your videos. I'm depressed when I watch your video it helps me clean.
Come fast next week
I want one more video ❤️
💃
When I used to clean hotel rooms I loved it when the guests would leave all the bedding and the towels, facecloths in the tub for me. One less step for me to take. It was a back breaking job day in day out! Those ladies deserve so much respect!
As one who also has been a cleaner in four different hospitality institutions, as well as in a hospital, I have to agree with you---on the rare occasions guests would strip the beds and leave everything in one area, it seemed to make the whole day go better!
I always do that
Seeing you clean is healing, calming, and inspirational.
I was a maid in Spain (my country) and in Scandinavia.
The working conditions in Spain are terrible, working more than 8 hours a day, getting only 4 hours salary, guests being nasty.
In Scandinavia conditions were right and guests were more clean and respectful.
Thank you for your videos
Totally agree about disrespectful guests (I work at reception), but about the salary issue it just depends on knowing where you're getting into...
I've cleaned rooms in a few budget hotels and a five star hotel, and I can tell you that hotel rooms are filthy. The blankets are usually only washed when there is visible dirt on them, the curtains and furniture are never cleaned, and because they are never given enough time to clean the room, housekeepers cut a lot of corners. Just in the five star hotel, I've seen someone clean drinking glasses with Windex and a few would put a dirty bathrobe back like it was clean for a new guest.
Same. I worked at an apartment hotel and in one work day I was supposed to clean 28 apartments. It was ridiculous. Certainly not a thorough clean like this. You have to cut a lot if corners to clean that many rooms or apartments. Cleaners are treated like shit, the hotel try to save money by cutting down on employees.
i thought things changed with rona D: but where are you experiencing this? USA?
@@_VC._ yeah, I have no respect for hotel billioners or even the owner of small hotels. They're all the same.
I can believe this. I am so sorry cleaners are treated badly in general by say management/owners and are expected to clean at a rate that is not really humanly possible to clean properly and how they would probably like to. I can only imagine how much energy it would take to clean one room let alone loads of them and be treated as less than. A big shout out to your Mum Midnight, that must be so much work for her.
@@_VC._ Just wanted to say your Mum is a superhero! I am sorry that she feels this way and she is treated badly but she is awesome to be able to keep going despite it all...
I remember when I went to Disney world when I was younger, the cleaning lady would always fold my bankie in a different animal each day, and it was one of the best parts about the trip lol. I still remember it so many years later
Other people go in a hotel extra to don't clean up. While you clean better and deeper as every hotel service cleaner.
Love your videos.
Housekeepers are only allowed to use certain products and tools and have to clean a certain way. They also only get 20-30 mins per room and have 16+ rooms a day deep cleaning every room would quickly tire them out and they would still have multiple rooms left
When i did housekeeping i cleaned everyroom like this. Cleaned all the furnitures the microwave had to do it very quickly tho it was very stressin and tiring. I had to clean the floors with rags down on my knees they said the swifters didn't clean the floors properly it was a motel
I’ve worked in two different hotels in two different countries and let me tell you that bed sheets are not changed after every guest. If there are two beds that have been pushed together and the guest has only slept on one side then they only change that set of sheets. Also showers are not deep cleaned, just a quick scrub. Also glasses are not replaced after every guest. Only if they’ve been used. Same with towels. Also a quick tip - never use the water kettle. It’s never washed and I’ve seen some housekeepers use the same dirty microfiber cloth from the bathroom to wipe the kettle. That’s why I always double check everything when I go in a hotel.
Yuuuuk thanks for the advices! Which countries was it?
As a housekeeper that works at a small run family motel, this absolutely horrifies me. Thankfully, because we are smaller we get way more time to clean a room. New rag for everything. Always change sheets, it's not even a question. There's good places out there
yeah, can agree with this. i worked for some days in the housekeeping in a hotel and this is what we did too. but i think it can get worse. we did the best we could to clean everything well.
Oh my i used the kettle when everytime i check in hotel 😭
Sadly there is a reason for that because Managers or supervisors rush housekeeping to clean a room in 20min or less. It takes 30min or more depending on the room to get clean. So don't be to harsh on housekeeping. But yea it's recommended to always clean items just in case.
My roommate has finally started cleaning around the house after watching your videos. Thank you!
I was a GM for hotels for years. There were never enough housekeeping employees. They were expected to clean a room in 10-15 minutes. That is not enough time to clean a room. We had kitchenettes too. I would work on my days off and deep clean rooms for hours! I’d also clean rooms on working days to help train and get rooms ready faster. It’s a very hard job and most people hate cleaning.
Imagine the cleaning lady coming in seeing it all clean lol or re cleaning it
That's so hilarious that you cleaned your hotel room. My very first real job was maid at a Holiday Inn. I still straighten up and put all my trash in one can. I will leave a few dollars tip too. Once I stayed in a 5 star hotel suite and the maid knocked and I helped her make the bed. I eventually became a nurse and continued to make beds. I love to clean!
I hope the hotel allowed you to stay there for free, you provided such an amazing cleaning service 🥰💖
That would be absurd. 😂
Yes, at least give 50%off the price
@@Novilia1211 Then everybody would accept to clean their rooms for that huge discount and the hotel would not earn enough to survive. Do you know how much money do you need to keep a hotel working? You are saying just stupid things, hahaha.
Every person is able to clean a room because it's a little space, so everybody would want the same discount.
THINK BEFORE WRITING!!
@@Lidiaaa10 hmm then how about the voucher which some hotels give? Everybody can clean their room too, but I haven't seen anybody clean like katarina. Why are you so offended by it?
I’ve stayed in many a hotel because of work and rarely is a room this thoroughly cleaned whether it’s a high end hotel or not. I always appreciate the cleaner and always try to leave the room decent, but it’s unrealistic to expect a room as clean as this one in the video.
its actually sad, there must be more workers to do that job, so that there is enough time to clean.
Love the video! Could you do a video on all the basics for cleaning everyone should know to keep their house clean?
Is dinner ready?
Working part-time as a hotel cleaner now, it makes me respect them a lot more. I never know how hard and tiring housekeeping job is until after the first week of my job, my body hurt all over... 😂
One of my favorite thing is guests taking off the bedsheets and putting them in a pile along with the towels, it makes it just a bit easier.
Full truth right here.
I work at premier inn and it’s VERY rare that anyone actually leaves the room even slightly tidy, so it makes me so so happy when I walk in and see the rubbish INSIDE the bin, towels left tidy and not scattered around the room and the beds stripped (this has only happened once tho).
Thank U so much! Premier in is actually my fav hotels.x
I find it funny when they actually remake the bed, like it helps 😅
@@Chloe-jj7vy Although I'll remake the bed on the morning of check out as that's four hours of negotiating a mess until I leave. Much better to sit on a straightened out bed.
she’s so genuinely excited to do this, omg everyone plz DO WHAT U LOVE !!!
You may not be able to clean a hotel room when you check out but the least you can do is leave it in a condition where the person coming to clean has an easy time and isnt discouraged.Otherwise,I love the work this lady does...You are helping many people...🥰
The Finnish duvets fascinate me. I love that there’s two individual ones.
I like this
I wish you did upload more videos, I always wait for your videos because its so satisfying to watch you cleaning, Katarina! Have a nice day.
Why is no one talking about the amazing hack of the trash bag twist to keep it in place?! I've been wrestling with trash bags my whole life!
THANK YOU, Auri! Little tips like that are so wonderful and helpful. I hope you know that you're making people's lives better not just by cleaning houses but by sharing this information! My bin-in-a-bin (it's one of those foot-pedal bins with a removable interior) looks so neat now, no bits of trash bag trying to escape from the sides.
Why talk about it at all? It's super easy to do, and it's not exactly rocket science---I've been using that for over 50 years now---so there's nothing to say about it.
@@jb6712 Because, believe it or not, it's not obvious to every single person.
With the greatest of respect, some people have differences such as upbringing or cognitive ability that make it not obvious but a doddle once we're shown.
It's so natural for me to take the sheets off when I leave the hotel. I think as a kid I remember my mom saying this is something we do as good guests and it does not matter if we do it for a friend or relative or in a hotel. The only thing I hate is when I signal to the cleaners that I don't want a new towel, I will keep using the first one I used (in order to save water and energy) and they still change it... :(
Some hotels now have a sign saying for any towels that need washing please put in the bath tub but most premium hotels insist on washing them everyday. There is a reason for this too as I was once told by a guest they don't want their towels washed and took for granted that they only meant that day! Then found they went to reception to complain that their towels hadn't been washed for 3 days straight. Guess who looked the fool?
It could also be because some hotels use the towels to dry down the shower and bath.
Waw i always keep the towels on the floor before leaving. Now will make show to have also the shits pile on a corner. I also make show no dirt is out of the bin! Why leaving all so messy wen we can do that in 5 min almost!
I wish I had you coming to my home. Got 5 kids at home (2 of which are twin toddlers, one with special needs) and I have RA (Rheumatoid Arthritis). Currently in a bad flare. I am beyond fatigued and my house is suffering. You are amazing. 💓
I wish I could come clean for you 🥺💖💖
@@trabajador_ awwwwwh. You are so very kind. 💓
I wish I could help you too. I have only one child who is also special needs..but I also have had autoimmune issues for many years, only they can't figure out what it is so I'm not diagnosed still. But I can sympathize a bit because the many symptoms oh and the fatigue is awful. I hate that my hands cramp up SO badly- trying to grate a carrot, brush my hair or hold a straightener to do my hair, open a can..anything. Its tough to do the simplest things people don't even think about. Sending you love & light you're a strong momma, be kind to yourself💜
@@caseylynn5976 thank you so much. You totally understand. My heart goes out to you. 💓
@@missruthie81 I feel for you! I had a year of being too weak to eat sometimes or brush my hair or do anything... I am so happy I'm better now and can do all the hard home job.....
I love that you basically do cleaning every minute of your day no matter what
Thank you so much. Because I was a maid, I know this job is very difficult. You brightened up someone's day that day
What a lovely way to make people feel old. Cleaners are looked down on as a bad job to have but it’s very important and can clearly even be fun and rewarding! Thank you for the tips!
Fantastic video princess. I love your videos. I used to clean and organize, but I do not have the energy and motivation right now. My husband died, my mother died too. My kids got married and they have their families. I am alone. But I enjoy watching your videos. Sometimes I want to clean like you, but I am feeling tired. GBY. Good luck, health and many blessings.
Sending some sunshine your way :)!

every other youtuber: "cAn I gEt sTuFf fOr FrEe" Aurikatariina: "Hey, i'll clean the room myself!" :D
I wouldn’t mind checking in after you were there. Great job! What a pretty room too. The beds are made beautifully. 🥰
You did an amazing job! I always strip the beds, bag the trash, and wipe down the surfaces in a hotel. As a cleaning service owner myself I always try to make their day a little easier.
I wonder how sparkles her house must be. You're a gem Auri 🤗
When we get a condo, I usually clean the whole week. The condo owner will waive the cleaning fee for me, $150. I always get a 5-star rating!
Through Air BnB?
@@katia.luna213 , vrbo and traveladvisor
Today was my first day on the job as a housekeeper, and we had a room that looked like it didn't need very much work at all. The bed didn't even look slept in. The girl training me happened to pull back the covers and look under and it was covered with shed hair. So a room that seemed clean and we only thought needed to be slightly wiped down ended up having to be a full clean
Good afternoon....so happy you came with a new video!! Cheers from Canada!
omg I LOVE your content. i've watched every single video. sending u love!!!!!!!!!!!
Love to hear that!! 🤩❤️
I love so much about everything you do! You are a young me!! Please just remember when time to have your children things will change and don’t be hard on yourself and don’t expect everything to always be perfect!
You are adorable and such a kind and generous lady! May God bless you for what you are doing!
That is SUPER nice of you. That industry can work thier janitorial staff to the bone. You are immensely gracious. 💕
I could watch you clean all day! I'm obsessed with you! You're an angel!
Having you as a guest when I was a hotel housekeeper would have made my whole year!
The cleaner: Alright, what mess do we have today..
It actually being clean.
Cleaner: The fu-
More like "YESSSSSS EXTRA TIME"
With the micro fibre cloths I use blue for loo pink for sink
Just so you know, the reason it’s pink for toilet is because pink is most like red, and red is no go. As in the only place a red mop should be used is a bathroom and the only place a red cloth should be used is a toilet 🚽 it’s a high alert colour (pink in this case)
Oh Auri! Love ya, gal! There is certainly no other cleaner like you! 🤗
Leaving the toilet brush the way you did to dry out- why I never thought about it? Thanks for the tip! Love your videos ❤️
Are you cleaning the house today? What did you bring for dinner, I'm eating dinner at home
@@bobinagebobinage2052 you are such a troll
i used to be a 5 star hotel housekeeper before, 2 person should be teamwork in 1 room within 10-12 minutes! other 2 minute used to touch up.
bedding must completely SMART! no stains and damage bed sheet, pillow sheets & duvet. one of these if had damaged on it, need to go down take new bedding sheets.
cleaning isn't bad at all than bedding!
i would loveeee to see if guest have a good/kind hearted for helping to stripped the bedding sheets and picking up their trash before checking outs. 🥺❤️
people like you is such a wonderful kind heart! couldn't say more other than helping people like us ❤️
looking forward to your next video, we love you.
from The Empire Brunei Hotel ❤️❤️❤️❤️
There is nothing like a tranquil clean clutter free space, so stress free and healthy for body mind and soul
Please always leave a tip for the hotel room cleansers‼️. It is an acknowledgment of the great job they are doing.
I always do. In person if possible.
Imagine the cleaning staff will have a nightmare when they see the cleanliness of this room.😅 you so kind girl ✌️👍
I used to work at hotel couple years ago as housekeeper, ahh great to see this activity again
When I get a notification that you have downloaded a video, my happy time begins 📸❣️🍊♥️🥳😘🥰🤩❤️,
I’ve done both ( always left a clean room when I would check out)
Also worked as a hotel cleaner and front desk reception. OMG some of the stuff I would have to deal with 🤮
I just started a new job as a room attendant (housekeeping) for the first time 9 days ago, but I salted watching your videos a couple months ago. This is awesome
I love ur tips. I suffer depression and with ur videos i have more motivation to clean my home
The first thing I do is clean the room before I unpack 😂😂
Me too girl!! I pack my disinfectant and paper towels 🤣❤️
Must be a Leo thing! I do the same thing!
I can tell you that hotels do not deep clean rooms as often as you’d think, maybe twice a year if you’re lucky. I worked in one where we only deep cleaned once a year. It was gross.
I love watching you clean and listening to you talk .
Hi Auri! Is it normal to make double beds with two duvets where you are? I've never seen beds made like that in America. I definitely understand wanting your own duvet, I'm quite selfish with mine.
I've stayed in hotels all over Europe - 2 single duvets is more common, but here in the UK a double duvet on a double bed is more common.
As a scandinavian I would be a little upset if I had to share a duvet. I like to sleep all the way at the edge like a coccoon.
The other difference I've noticed is in the UK and US, pillows are rectangular, but are usually square in mainland Europe.
In the Nordic countries it is common to have two duvets for a double bed. From my experience it is actually quite difficult to find king sized duvets and covers here - hubby and I like to share (except when he steals the foot area, then I don't like it), I also prefer how one duvet looks compared to two singles on a double bed.
@@lillianlamantia9605 I definitely think they look nicer as well, but I don't find it too comfortable. A bed cover helps with the looks :)
Yay! We've been waiting! Hope the next video has tons of "trashes" lol!
I wish everyone that cleans hotel rooms would be as thorough as you are! I have OCD with germs so staying in a hotel gives me bad anxiety.
I have the same. I hate going to hotels. It gives me the creeps. And I can't sleep at all because I'm constantly thinking of all the germs... eeeekk !!!!
Believe me , I’m a housekeeper and I wish we could. Imagine being given 18+ rooms to clean within 8 hours and they expect you to only clean a room within 35 freaking minutes or less. I always make sure to get everything when I clean a room , and get every corner but when you have your supervisor breathing down your neck about how long your taking it a pain . I can get a room done within 33 , but I now those last 2 minutes is to get all your stuff and get out , knowing that there’s probably stuff under the bed or behind the desk etc ..... I hate it .
@@Iamanicajean bless your heart ❤ you are a rare gem!
@@luceliapretorius4155 me too!!
I love your cleaning videos, your positive attitude and energy are infectious.
And always remember to leave a tip for each night spent..folks work hard and deserve a tip ..thank you
I don't believe the answers. :) The cleaners do their best but they just aren't given enough time to clean properly.
As a housekeeper I focus my time into cleaning the bathroom thoroughly but I don't have time to clean everything well. It sucks doing half assed work all day.
In Finland working conditions are much better than in most of the world. I do believe it, over there.
@@Qrtuop As a Finnish person, I do believe cleaners have it better than in many other countries (in terms of payment and general working hours etc), but unfortunately Finnish hotels still expect cleaners to do their jobs in this 20-30 minute per room style. My friend worked as a hotel cleaner last summer and she told me they did not have time to wash the glasses properly or do deep cleaning really anywhere in the room and that it made her feel really frustrated and angry. As it is, Finnish hotels still want to provide the same check-in hours as hotels worldwide, to stay on the edge of the competition, so cleaners will not have any more time to do their jobs than anywhere else. Sadly.
I was always late, because I did a thorough job, but just couldn't be fast enough.. it's a hard job. Even if they took one room off my room list would have helped out alot.
Auri! You're so kind-hearted and inspirational! You should start your own cleaning sets line!! I'll be first in line :D
whenever i feel too tired to clean up, your videos inspire me a lot to do something about it! i learned the dish soap x sponge from you, makes my kitchen so clean, love it.
I just watch this type of video’s To learn How To clean. 😃 fast as a single mother. Love the wat she clean the walls of the bathroom! Life saver
I wish I could be as happy as she is when she cleans.
You can when you see the result! It's satisfying!
@@mickeyrosa7226 I am too tired to enjoy the result
@@Jude13able I hear that! Nowadays some people are too tired to do anything, myself included due to health problems!
@@mickeyrosa7226 that's what I'm talking about because since my surgery it's hard to do anything.
@@Jude13able I know and my day to day, I have to decide if I'll do something or not because I'm overwhelmed. I try to do some things that won't exhaust me.
Wow! The hotels must LOVE you as their customer! 😂
Lmao I LOVE YOUR ENTHUSIASM IT IS SO CONTAGIOUS I WANT TO CLEAN MY HOUSE TO
What a great motivator you are for cleaning and cleanliness🤗💪🏻. Thank you very much👍🏻
I really love your videos! Watching those cleanings is so satisfying and motivates to clean myself as well :D Also your positive nature is just a blessing to watch! Thank you
The cleaner at home be like: Honey you won't BELIEVE what happened at work today!
Wow I would never think about how different country’s make there beds , but the hotel beds in Canada are very different. I’ve worked in a lot of different hotels over my 15 years being a housekeeper/cleaner and I’ve never seen them done this way. Very cool !
I was a hotel cleaner for many years… so many of my co-workers would skip basic cleaning… then when I had to clean their section on their off day, I was disgusted!!! Great job!! Enjoy your videos!
love this video the most, everything is just unique and amazing just like you. i think you are the first on the planet to deep clean a hotel room before checking out. a kiss to you for that .
Just wondering… Are you wearing new gloves when you’re touching the bed? Also, do you clean all over the phone, including the headset? What about the remote controls?
and the headboard etc
oh my gosh.. you need to start a hotel chain.. FINALLY someone that knows how to clean..
She is a cleaning wizard. Lol We would love to have her at our house. She has such joy in cleaning. Awesome lady.
I’ve never actually seen someone clean after their stay but it is definitely a thing I want to do 😆😆😆😆😆
Same😄😄
@@SB-no9pz YEEES 😇
Everything so perfectly done, Can I ask what's your thought on using mask to prevent the inhale of bacteria, dust, chemicals, and their reaction?
I've been a both a hotel housekeeper and for private residence, I have to say I prefer private just because most hotels don't actually give you enough time to properly clean the room. I even had one manager tell me I didn't need to change the duvet between short stay guests.
My hotel won't let us change the duvet until it has visible dirt or pet hair. regardless of how long the guest stayed.. It's awful.
I worked at a hotel where I was not allowed to change glasses between guests if there was a lot to do. Since then I can not use hotel glasses...
Amazing job you did there!!
I always clean hotel rooms after a stay, I even make the bed because I always make my bed at home and it's a habit. I know the service people will be happier if the room isn't totally trashed when they come to clean.
U know that they are going to unmake the bed bc they take the sheets off anyway right?
@@GenetMJF Yeah, I know, but it lessens the chance I might leave something in the room if I have a nice flat surface to use to pack my bags.
It’s a nice gesture but if you would just strip the bedsheets they would be even happier :)
@@tinnssaa The germaphobe in me wouldn't want to use the mattress surface and/or mattress cover as as packing surface, at least I know the sheets are changed regularly and are probably the cleaner surface.
You are Amazing really I love watching your videos it motivates me to clean and organize everything nicely thank you with lots of love and blessings 💗
15-20 mins? I would take that much time only to change bed sheets and making a swan with towels haha. Amazing job!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾
I never heard of power paste before, but after i saw your videos i searched for it and it really is a godsend for my kitchen and bathroom, everything looks so shiny again ;; thank you
Hello from my Wisconsin Farm! Love your videos. Learned so much! 🥰
I clean my showers sinks and toilets everyday and my entire house gets vacuumed everyday mirrors I do once a week same with windows. My life is a lot easier if I just do it while I’m in the room instead of putting it off.
Nothing like humblebragging....
The Universe has sent me this channel, I needed it.
I thought I was the only one who cleaned my hotel room before checking out. Lol. I don't do it even a quarter as good as you, but it's an awesome gesture.
24 minutes. From the time you clock on to the time you clock off you are given 24 minutes to clean each room. Not too bad if everyone is left in a reasonable state (Microwave clean, empty kettle, ironing board and iron packed away, no spare bedding used and out of the cupboard, rubbish all ikn one bin etc) I did not enjoy my early mornings of hotel cleaning before university - so often it would run over and I would be late to class.
I know someone who worked at this exact hotel chain in Helsinki and they were given 15 minutes per room. I don't know how people can do it. I have lots of respect for the cleaners
