It really depends on the location. - Front Desk Associate Holiday Inn Express Employee Review

As a front desk employee you really are a jack-of-all-trades. 30 percent of my shift is spent doing laundry, or folding it, which is the most time consuming part. Night audit has further duties, and because it is "slow" you're expected to pick up the slack of all the other shifts. So, if the people before you didn't do any laundry or clean or prepare key cards, you'll have to do it yourself.
