The cleaning fee is a one time charge not a nightly charge. So the longer you stay the cheaper your nightly rate. It covers the cost of laundering your bed bath and kitchen linen, cleaning the equivalent of a small house, and the cost of cleaning products and appliances used.

Charging your electric car using our power is not permitted. It is a safety and insurance issue for us. Chargers are available at both supermarkets.
