The housekeeping staff will give you as many items you need if you don't want service. But they do a thorough cleaning daily if you want it. There's no covid restrictions other than wearing masks in public areas.

I liked the hotel because there's a full service (including meats and vegetables) grocery store and a pharmacy in the mall on the first floor. No need to leave to get last minute things.

I lived in hotter temperatures before. Like almost 135 degrees Fahrenheit on the Colorado River in imperial dam are of California. Yes.it gets 135 there. And the mosquitoes are so bad they fog the entire area every night in the summer. It's so hot I had a inverter sitting on my vehicle seat unplugged and the cord melted into the seat 😁. I don't think it's that hot but close enough.
