Who tells about accommodation? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hotel

'accommodation?' is the definition.
(type of accommodation)

'who tells about' is the wordplay.
'about' says the answer is hidden in the clue (the clue goes around or about the answer).
'HOTEL' is hidden in the letters of 'who tells'.

(Other definitions for hotel that I've seen before include "Oh, let it take guests" , "Code word for letter H" , "Travellers' rest" , "Fawlty Towers, say" , "stays here" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
