Personally, I have been doing so you a bit over a year, after David Grossman authored a similar column. Don't get me wrong, I am not a big tipper. As a rule, I leave $2.00 per room for the first night and $1.00 for each succeeding night. I leave the $$ on the bed, partially tucked under the pillow.

I would appreciate learning what others do in regard to tippingon housekeepers.

From my experience it isn't uncommon but it's not too frequent either
