Hotels, like restaurants, employ lots of staff who don't stay very long. It's also a staff that observes, judges, and hustles every person it can. Tomsky pulls back the curtain on luxury hotels and lets the reader see all the magic or un-magic behind the posh lobby and courteous staff. He also has more than one tale to tell about celebrity behavior when the camera isn't rolling or their handler isn't in the room. Appendixes include Things a Guest Should Never Say, Things a Guest Should Never Do, Things Every Guest Must Know, FYA -- Finding Your Agent, Standard LIES That Spew from the Mouth of a Front Desk Agent, and a Brief Guest Survey. You'll never look at a hotel front clerk the same way again.
