Can someone tell me how this work, Will they give you a Gift Card when you check in if you opt out of Housekeeping
You can still get any extra supplies you want - coffee, towels, etc. Mousekeeping just won’t bring them automatically.Piggy backing off of this question, if you opt out of housekeeping at AoA, can you still get extra coffee for the coffee maker if you go to the front desk?
And where can you use the digital gift cards? At the parks? Or only at shop Disney?
Gotta pay me more than $10 to give up having someone else make my bed for a few days, LOL
You would have to call housekeeping from your room phone and they will deliver it to you. The front desk doesn't keep supplies like this on hand. But, housekeeping will still bring you anything you call for.Piggy backing off of this question, if you opt out of housekeeping at AoA, can you still get extra coffee for the coffee maker if you go to the front desk?
Yes, you can call and request anything you needJust so that I'm understanding this correctly.....
My son wants to opt out of housekeeping which is fine with me. My worry is that being there for 6 nights, I would like to get fresh towels every few days.
With opting out of housekeeping, I can call anytime to get extra towels, shampoo, soaps?
Of course I would tip them for their service. Which brings another questions. What would be appropriate amount to tip them for bringing extra supplies?
Thank you
my daughter and I have the same dilemma. We don't stay at hotels much, kind of nice on vacation to have your room taken care of for you. Haven't decided yet.Gotta pay me more than $10 to give up having someone else make my bed for a few days, LOL
Truth! And it actually costs me, as I try to leave a decent tip. And when I ask for extra coffee, they always come through! But my daughter, who has never opted out, is considering it, because they have their toddler in the room napping from about 1-3 every day, and mousekeeping has "missed" them at least twice per 5-7 day trip-they didn't complain because they felt it was not the staff's fault. This time they are going to try to ask at check in for mousekeeping to avoid mid day hours or opt out if this isn't possible-.Gotta pay me more than $10 to give up having someone else make my bed for a few days, LOL
We're going to try it this trip. I figure I'll make the kids help out with cleaning up the room, make them earn their keep. I'll use the $50 at the end of the week to reward them with some extra snacks.Tried it once. Didnt like it. Wont do it again lol. We travel with 3 kids though so having someone else come make/change beds, straighten up, vacuum, wipe down, take out trash, restock, is worth more than $10 a day for me on vacation lol. The $50 we got doesnt go too far with a family of 5.
I didn’t think of the vacuuming and wipe down. I can make my own bed and request new towels and trash pick up. But a vacuumed floor? This has changed my mind. I’m not opting out.Tried it once.
