Room service!
I've checked in to my hotel, dog tired, and need something to eat. The room service menu says there's acover charge on each orde of $2.75 and/or 15% service charge.
The guy who delivers sure looks like he needs a tip. Do i assume the hotel does the decent thing and spreads the service charge around or do I tip him as well?
Views please.....!

Check the wording on the room service menu. Sometime it states that the 15% is a gratuity. If it doesn't, I call room service -or- the hotel manager to ask... sometimes room service says they're not allowed to answer that question (cop out).

The only difference between ordinary service and extraordinary service is a little EXTRA.
