This customer spotlight is on Dontarius Jackson, originally hired for Maintenance at Economy Hotel Candler in 2018, and ended up being the Jack-Of-All-Trades. Today, Jackson knows all about front desk operations house keeping, you name it!
He was nominated for Employee of the Month by Area Manager Ron Davis. "You can tell a lot about a person by their willingness to be a true team player," said Davis. "He's dedicated to helping out in any area and has no reservations pitching in."
What Jackson likes most about working at Economy Hotel is something we hear a lot of from staff and customers: "it's like family." said Jackson. "We're always looking out for each other, helping each other."
It really is all about family for Jackson, father to five kids with the youngest being one-years-old. When asked how he is coping with the Covid-19 crisis as one of our heroes on the front lines, Jackson explains "at the end of the day, I have a family to feed."
Jackson has grand plans for when the crisis is over, which includes taking a Caribbean cruise and plunging back into his hobby of interior painting.
"From the check-in to check out I found everything to be smooth. The staff showed a great willingness to help and made the best recommendations for nearby attractions and eateries. Great team here. Special thanks to the Manger Kory for making us feel welcomed and that our business was appreciated."
"I love love love the staff. The woman that runs it (Michelle) is an absolute doll. Housekeepers are friendly and very accommodating. Security is friendly. Its my second go at this hotel and if ever needed again its the first place im calling."
