ISBN: 9780226389127 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. One of the great pleasures of staying in a hotel is spending time in a spotless, neat, and organized space that you don't have to clean.

With Housekeeping by Design, David Brody introduces us to those people--the housekeepers whose labor keeps the rooms clean and the guests happy. Through unprecedented access to staff at several hotels, Brody shows us just how much work goes on behind the scenes--and how much management goes out of its way to make sure that labor stays hidden. We see...

ISBN: 9780754672494 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.
