Mousekeeping

I was wondering after reading and viewing all the wonderful "mousekeeping" envelope ideas -

As a DVC member - how do you handle tipping mousekeeping? Do you still follow the $1 per person/per day even though there is only service every so many days of the stay?

Thanks!

We usually give about $25-$30 at the end of our stay, since they still have to clean up the room after we have stayed there for the week. For the three of us, I think it still works out to about $1 or so per person per day.

We usually leave a tip on trash & towel day ($1 per person per day) and then again on check-out day, in case there is a different mousekeeper scheduled. Usually, I leave a larger amount that day due to the extra work involved in getting the room ready to welcome another member. rella

I tip a little differently depending on the type of room. For a studio, I tend to leave $5 on trash and towel day, and $10 on full cleaning day. For one or two bedrooms, it's usually more like $10 for trash and towel and $20 for full cleaning.

Thanks! Just wanted to make sure that I was going with the flow! Will have to get those mousekeeping envelopes printed!

Isn't it time for me to leave yet?
