Thread: Interesting Note Under My Hotel Resort Door

I put the DND sign on the door all the time. I feel like I don’t need my room made up or fresh towels every day, and am content to do my own thing, I pick up my coffee at the front desk. I’ve gotten similar notes from quite a few hotels over the recent years. I think they are trying to limit their liability is some way. If you were I peril in your room and no one checked on you, I’m sure someone would have something to say. Personally I could care less if they check in every now and then. I’m never there when they do and my room is mostly clean. The first time it happened it did cause me to raise a brow.

So true on the towels and room cleaning. Years past, maids were delighted to see my DND sign on the door so they could skip my room. The most I'd ask of them is perhaps for a spare towel or coffee for the room coffee maker. Now that's changing. I wish I could be like you and care less, but I don't like this policy change, so I, unfortunately, do care that they are now doing this.
