The film provides an interesting glimpse into the lives of staff and guests, but at times, it glosses over the deeper issues facing the hospitality industry. The interviews are charming, but the emotional depth could be improved; it often skims the surface of the stories it wants to tell.

Just don't expect an in-depth critique of the industry; rather, it’s a celebration of service and resilience in tough times. Show less
