Cost of daily mousekeeping

[iwannbindisnee]

Hi! I know I have seen this somewhere, but cannot find it on the dvc members website, nor did I find anything recent on the search. Is the cost of new towels each day $25 when staying on points? (If the visit is less than 5 days I think?) Also, is there an extra charge or can you separately order just cleaning or trash cans emptied daily? Can someone give me the link with the answers? Also, do we need to "order" it before check in or can we add it when we are down there? Thanks, Debbie

I wish I could tell you how I found it, but the website is down and I cannot access it at the moment. I know I had to hunt through the different links. I think I found it by checking out the FAQ link which then had a question about trash and towel service and then that directed me on how to get to the link you need to "order" the service. Hope you have better luck than I am having getting on the site!

I was doing a search on the dvc member website. Where did you find this? The info is very helpful. I will be staying in both a studio & 2 bedroom. I believe I also saw that I can ask for it for a few of teh days we're down there....Thanks again Chuck!

You can request it the day you require service by calling housekeeping or the front desk. We have never done this, because we actually would prefer they NEVER came in!

Definitely with you on this one Diane

We haven't stayed DVC yet - only just joined. I think we are going to be are going to be at one place for 15 nights. Do they clean at all during that time, or just trash and towels every 4 days? What about sheets etc?

 

[castleri]

They will most likely do a full cleaning on day 4 trash and towel on day 8 and another full cleaning on day 12 although it could be the other way around. We have never stayed in one unit more than 11 days so only know they did the full cleaning on day 4 and T&T on day 8 in our case. Some people have also reported that they have been able to adjust the days by a day or so if for some reson they didn't want someone in the room on the regularly scheduled days.

From the member homepage click on View Resorts on the right, then pick a resort, and on the left click Resort Services.

Diane,

Agree 100%. I travel a lot on business... and I generally leave the "do not disturb" sign up for my entire stay. I really would prefer them to never come in... especially since my biz trips are generally just 2-3 nights long.

At DVC... the "4 day" period seems just about right. I really would not want them more often than that.

I am mostly thinking about the towels; I agree the cleaning always seems to be at the worst time! It is good to know I can call the day of & get towels. Does anyone know if they have any larger garbage bags for when we empty our own trashcans? Of course it won't be a problem to bring some along, just want to know for planning! thanks again everyone! Deb

The largest trash bags I have seen are the ones under the kitchen sink but since we take the trash to the trash room on the way out each morning have never needed anything bigger.
