is maid service still included when you stay at a dvc resort? I just got back from Disney and stayed 8 nights and the room was filthy and no one cam to make up the room. Why am I paying such high dues for such lousy service (no service in my case)

If it was 8 nights you should have had housekeeping on 4th day. if it was 7 nights and 8 days you would only have had trash and towel.
Was the unit filthy when you checked in? Kind of curious why you didn't call down then and either be switched or have someone come up and check it.
As Mikki stated, if you stayed 8 nights in one room you should have had housekeeping on day 4, otherwise only trash and towel.
it was for 8 days. ////////////////and I did call when we got our roombecause there was a open bottle of wine in the bedroom that spilled onto the carpet . they had to come up with a steam cleaner to clean the rug. and the worst part is I had to wait until 4 30 pm to get the room. Youd think it would be cleaned and if need be checked before I was given the room. And tho its not about the room, but the grounds were also all overgrown. I remember as a kid they were always out cutting the grass and trimming the shrubs when I was there,and the garbage cans at the bus stops were overflowing with trash drawing bugs. no nothing. Disney charges and arm and a leg but service I have to say has signiigaly decreases. I have to say I wasn't pleased. Have to start looking for other places for vacation
Where did you stay?
On one trip, we had folks forget to do our room cleaning for us. We simply called housekeeping. They said they would come right up if we wanted it. Instead, we made arrangements to have the cleaning take place the following day. It all worked out.
we stayed at Saratoga springs
BLT is our home.
We had a split ressie last Sept .
We had the 1 BR for 10 nights, w/ the accompanying studio for 5 nights. The ressie somehow got it wrong. My room key and parking pass expired in 5 days, had to desk to get it fixed. Our guests left in 5 days. In all that time, we never saw any maid or trash/ towel service. When I asked at checkout, got told it was because of the split ressie and no one bothered to fix it after the ressie correction.
Now, when we go back 9/14 for 14 days, I will ask for a cleaning schedule upon check-in.

Tink, since your stay was 8 nights and 9 days, you actually should have had a full cleaning on Day 4, not just trash and towel.
Here's info from the member site:
Trash & Towel Service
For stays of 7 or less nights, Trash & Towel Service is provided on day 4, regardless of whether you're using Member-discounted cash, vacation points or a combination of both.
With Trash & Towel service, Housekeeping will:
Empty trash and replace liners in trash bins.
Provide fresh bathroom linens.
Replace bath amenities as needed.
Replenish facial tissues, paper towels and toilet paper.
Replenish coffee, sugar, cream and sweeteners.
Full Cleaning Service
For stays of 8 or more nights, Full-Cleaning Service is provided on day 4 and Trash & Towel Service is provided on day 8, regardless of whether you're using Member-discounted cash, vacation points or a combination of both. This process repeats for stays longer than 8 days.
With Full-Cleaning service, Housekeeping will provide everything included with the Trash & Towel Service, plus:
Change the bed linens.
Vacuum and dust the vacation villa.
Clean the bathroom(s).
Clean the kitchen/kitchenette and wash the dishes.
Yes. That's been my experience. Full service on day 4 for longer stays. Trash and towel on day 4 for shorter stays.
I meant to type full service cleaning on Day 4, but it was past the time when I could edit the post once I noticed my error :oops: . As I've never stayed 8 nights, I've never had the full service cleaning on Day 4, only trash and towel.
Really? Well that did not happen. Maybe they are cutting back on the maid service? :confused::confused:Quote:
