Polite. Friendly. Competent. Helpful.
We arrived an hour before official check in time because our schedule changed. Monica called housekeeping and found our room already had been cleaned.
As we approached our room, housekeeping staff working in adjacent rooms smiled and told us all was ready in our room. It was.
No guarantee it would always be so, of course, but they made the effort to try and accommodate.
Appreciated by two tired travelers. Took a nap. Went for a beautiful walk in a park a couple of miles away before dinner.
