Daily housekeeping?
- Thread starter CaptainAmerica

For the crazy price that Disney charges, the rooms should be cleaned EVERYDAY. Otherwise, we can stay in a house off property or perhaps not even visit Disney at all! Such a shame!!! we may cancel
and I love Disney They are clearly taking advantage. Wake up.Its about getting ripped off. Disney charges a fortune for their resorts.
This is terrible!!! What the heck?? Cheep cheep cheep
I am literally thinking about canceling our trip over this! This is terrible! I love Disney but will not be taken advantage of.
It wouldn’t bother me if we weren’t paying for it! Disney is crazy expensive. We could book a condo at half the cost and clean it ourselves

I'm wide awake sister and I know that they don't actually clean the toilets every day when they do come in. They will make the bed and replace towels, but the room does not get a full cleaning every single day. And most people do NOT clean their toilets every day at home. Even before Covid, we did not want housekeeping coming in on a daily basis. We are not animals and the room does not get dirty in a few days. I find it more gross to have some stranger coming in and touching everything then us just keeping the room tidy. It has nothing to do with cost. I can see having an issue if they give you a dirty room when you check in, but hanging up your towels should not be that big of a deal. If you need anything for your room, all you have to do is call them and ask. Frankly, IDK why anyone would want the additional contact while we are still in this situation. Now, when things go back to being more normal and they still do not do daily housekeeping, I can see complaining about it, but not now.For the crazy *** price that Disney charges, the rooms should be cleaned EVERYDAY.

You’ll be hard pressed to find most hotels doing daily housekeeping with Covid. So it’s not just Disney. You still get some services every other day if that’s what you choose, and you can always call if you need something. And no one is forcing you to stay onsite. Frankly, I’m glad no one is coming in the room. The less I need to deal with strangers touching my things, the better.
Companies have saved millions of dollars not changing towels, bedsheets etc everyday. Some hotels don't even give out those bottles, packets of shampoo and soap. There is a pump up dispenser in the shower. This is pre covid
They are using Canary's on the cleaning crew now
They should use elephants instead
they work for peanuts.

I'm still so mixed on whether or not we should have opted out entirely during our recent trip. My husband says it was worth it to have our trash and recycling bins emptied a couple of times during our stay, and I guess it was nice to have towels replenished along with some additional H20 things. I can handle the beds not being made and the bathrooms not being cleaned, because I certainly don't clean bathrooms every day at home and going 6 days without a cleaning isn't insane to me and we clearly live like filthy animals because we aren't regular bed makers.
That being said, I'm not sure it was really worth it. When we road tripped over the summer, we opted out of housekeeping everywhere we went, but we also weren't staying anywhere more than 2 nights.

I understand completely how the OP feels. One of the perks of hotel stays is the daily housekeeping, even if it is a simple making of the bed or a quick wipe down of the vanity area. It makes a world of difference after a long day out coming home to a freshened-up hotel room. I don't mind the cutback during the pandemic, safety first, but I hope it's not permanent.
Out of curiosity. Have you stayed in any hotel since the Pandemic started?

At one point Disney was giving gift cards if you opted out of house cleaning seems they stopped that. Reduced house cleaning just another perk down the dirty drain.

The gift cards were pre-COVID. I don't like this either but it's not the same thing.

We recently stayed at a Marriott and there standard covid housekeeping schedule is to "clean" your room every three days you're there unless you specifically request otherwise!! At least Disney is coming by every other day.

Same. Everywhere I've been it's been an every other or every third day type deal. You can though call and request it daily if you are so inclined.

My thought is “what’s the point?” With Covid, I’d rather keep people I don’t know in my room to the bare minimum. Maybe a year from now I’ll feel different when my DH and kids ha e all been vaccinated.

The higher end hotels clean the rooms daily. I just stayed at the four season and my room was cleaned daily. Turndown service had to be requested though.
