Segmented room reservation for dining plan purposes?

[DVC Grandpa]

When occupants of a room “check out” the room is fully cleaned. These days when segmented reservations are made to facilitate getting the dining plan (for a few days of the total days stay), you have to check out and check back in. At this time does housekeeping get the “full cleaning” notification and actually clean the room? In years past we would make reservations in weekly segments so that in the event the room or room location was not to our expectations we could request for a change at the end of the week. Back then this did mess up the housekeeping cycle and occasionally we had to call at the end of the seventh day because the room was not cleaned.

They might get the information but we simply put the do not disturb sign on the door to ensure that no one came in while we were at the parks.

At BWV, we were asked if we were checking out. When we told the mousekeeper it was a segmented stay, she still asked if we needed anything, like towels etc. Since we were set, we declined.

At BLT, we were never asked and not bothered so not sure if it was because of the sign or if they were aware of it ahead of time.

Mousekeeping has big problems with their cleaning schedule and I am sure that segmenting hasn't helped. Our last segmented stay had Mousekeepers coming and going to a schedule that we couldn't figure out. Finally we put out the DND sign and told the Front Desk Manager when we expected our cleaning.
