Before anyone goes for a shop I urge them to go to www.bedbugregistry.com. A lot of 4 and 5 star hotels have had them including all the big chains and Four Seasons. They're nasty and expensive little suckers to get rid of.

I've spent the night in upwards of 50 hotels this year. No bed bugs yet. Perhaps I taste bad.

I have never had a problem with bed bugs. I do not do too many hotel shops but when I pay for a hotel it is usally a low star one. But I did read somewhere a few years ago that there are a lot more bed bugs on the east side of the country.
As for the difficulty of the jobs, I have not done fancy hotels so the reports have not been difficult. Walesmaven gave some good advice.
I have been able to get most of it done by spending a little time on the computer after check in, finishing most of the report the next morning and downloading pics from my camera and then I do the check out portion when I arrive at the next night hotel. If they are for the same msc you can try and ask to have the deadline at the end of the several night stay. The thing to stay away from if you are thinking of making it more like a vacation is a hotel with spas, masseuses, restaurants, room service, parking valets and pay lots. Then you are assured not to have to report on all those things. But of course you have to be like me and not care about those amenities to have a vacation. A nice old fashioned motel with a big free parking lot outside, decent rooms and restaurants next door is more my speed. Throw in a free breakfast in the lobby, a fridge and microwave and I am happy.

Sandy,
That is a good working plan. What MSC offer hotel jobs? I want to go to Vegas.
