Question: were there no American citizens who could fill those jobs as cooks, hotel superintendent, assistant hotel manager, etc, if indeed foreign workers were sought out for those positions?

Probably so. The ones that could pass a drug test and show up on time are usually in higher-level positions. The low-end Americans simply collect welfare, rather than working. So - nope, next to impossible to find qualified help.
