In Hotel Secrets from the Travel Detective, America's best-known and most trusted travel authority reveals the insider knowledge that can make every hotel stay as comfortable as (and sometimes even more cost-efficient than) home. With his incomparable access and nose for news, Peter Greenberg shares the secrets that people who know hotels--managers, maids, reservation clerks, bellhops, chefs, and maintenance guys--don't want you to know about value, service, safety, security, and cleanliness. Tips include:
* How to tell if your room is really clean
* What never to order from room service
* The real way to prevent hotel crime
* How to beat excessive hotel phone charges
* The exact rooms where headline-making events took place
Drawn from the author's experiences as both an investigative reporter and a constant traveler, Hotel Secrets from the Travel Detective is an essential guide to everything from luxury resorts to motels, from airport hotels and bed-and-breakfasts to outrageous (and often secret) alternatives to hotels.
