I agree with skiwee - I never heard of NOT tipping housekeeping until I read this thread. I was wondering why no envelope was left in our room at the end of our vacation last year - now I know that it may have been considered crass by many people. We had to chase down the mousekeeper to give her a $20 tip on our last day - and to her credit, our room was kept immaculate and the turndown service was very nice even though we left no tip for the first 6 nights.
To those who feel that mousekeepers should be able to make do on their salaries or else find another job, I can only say this - their hourly wage is most likely pitiful and I'm sure that they wouldn't be cleaning our toilets if they could just find another job that easily, so I like to give them a little extra since I can afford to spend $5000 on my vacation.
