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).
