That's right, they are hotel sleep testers. But is this enviable job as a sleep tester really as easy as imagined? Why is it that the treatment is good but no one does it?

The editor went on a trip some time ago and met a travel friend. This traveling friend was not simple at first glance. She had a large bag of camera equipment. I thought she was a photography enthusiast, but after we got to know her better, I found out that she was the legendary hotel sleep tester. Because she is a person who likes to travel, she felt that this job would definitely be suitable for her. However, when she actually came into contact with it, it was not as perfect as she imagined.

You need to know everything related to the hotel, such as the completeness of hotel facilities, hotel brand, hotel service standards, hotel decoration style, etc. In every aspect. Therefore, hotel safety and surrounding environment are things that sleep testers need to check and visit up and down. Sleep testers do not always sleep until dawn. They often get up in the middle of the night to listen to whether there is any noise in the hotel and improve their own Try sleeping experience.

Secondly, as a hotel sleeper, you need to fly around the world. Cameras, tripods, voice recorders, notebooks, lenses and other things are all necessary for work. In addition to luggage, you also need to carry dozens of kilograms of stuff around. , it can really be regarded as physical work. And no matter how late you arrive at the hotel, no matter how tired or sleepy you are, you have to finish shooting the hotel room as soon as possible.

Finally, hotel sleep testers need to write a sleep test experience report, so they evaluate the hotel, analyze the pros and cons, and make suggestions. In addition to having clear writing and photography skills, you also need to have enough media influence to get more hotels to invite you and ensure enough exposure for them.

In general, an excellent hotel sleep tester = hotel consultant + photographer + reporter + internet celebrity + critic. The editor believes that there is no free lunch in the world, and there is no pie in the sky. No matter what kind of work you do, you need to put in your own efforts, and the same goes for sleep testers.
