In the fierce competition to provide the best experience for customers, hotels are always seeking the most comprehensive solutions to address odor and bacteria issues in their accommodation spaces.
Below are some common causes of odor in hotels:
- Musty odor from dampness: Areas with high humidity, such as bathrooms, areas near windows, or poorly ventilated areas, can cause musty odors.
- Sweat odor from previous users: Especially in bedrooms and gym areas, sweat odors from previous users can accumulate and cause unpleasant smells.
- Food and beverage odors: Odors from food and beverages in restaurants and dining areas can spread to other areas of the hotel.
- Odors from items and equipment: Items, furnishings, and equipment such as carpets, curtains, beds, and sofas can absorb odors and release them into the surrounding space.
- Odors from chemicals and cleaning products: The use of strong chemical cleaning products can cause unpleasant odors and irritate some individuals.
- Odors from bacteria and mold: Bacteria and mold present in the air and on surfaces can create foul odors.
- Cigarette smoke odor: If guests smoke in the room, the smell of cigarette smoke can linger in the space and cause discomfort to others.
