Uber/Lyft: 15-20%. Round up for short trips.

Hotels: $2-5 per night for housekeeping. More if you made a mess.

FAQ

Do I tip on tax? +

Most people tip on the pre-tax amount. But honestly, the difference is usually a dollar or two. Do whatever feels right.

What if service was terrible? +

Talk to the manager first. A zero tip punishes the server but doesn't fix the systemic issue. If you must tip low, leave 10% and a note explaining why.
