If You "Make A Green Choice," Do You Still Tip The Maid?
Just curious about what you guys do. To me, tipping the maid is something you do to thank her for keeping your room up while you're staying in a hotel. Now that most hotels have the "make a green choice" option (or something equivalent), when you use it, you are not taking advantage of maid service at all. I know that the maid cleans the room before you get there and after you leave, but I really don't see that so much a s service to me as I see it as a basic service to the hotel.
So, what do you think? If you make a green choice, do you still tip the maid?
