That’s my gut feeling.

I was in an Embassy Suites last week that had severely abbreviated pool hours, and a list of pool closure periods for “disinfection”. One morning, the pool was closed for an additional length of time. I asked if the closure was related to disinfection, etc. and the front desk agent said “budget cuts. No staff here to maintain”. I was in the pool as one of the disinfect periods came to pass and no staff ever appeared to shut the pool for cleaning. This was on a Friday going into a weekend when the hotel was sold out.

On-demand housekeeping will linger. Smaller breakfast services will hang around, too. Lower room rates will slowly crawl back to normal (most are there already).
