Employees and finances
Running a hotel also requires many hands involved in the game. Ultimately, there are many more people working together to make the hotel work than meets the eye of the guest. Janitors, cooks, logistics, cleaning staff. The optimal number of employees in the right position is crucial for the smooth running of the hotel. Employees also exhibit various characteristics that can have both a positive and negative impact on their performance. Higher levels increase efficiency here.

But employees want to be paid and, as with other expenses related to running the hotel, the money must first be brought in by guests. With poor finances, the pantry remains empty, driving away customers and leaving you in the red.
