When I checked in, I was not told about it so after two days when housekeeping did not come, I went over to the housekeeping building to inquire. They told me to hang the card on the door handle the days I wanted them to come. They gave me a card since there was none in the room. I am not sure if this is something they are trying or if it will be permanent. They said many people did not want daily housekeeping for various reasons. This was new to me too, but it was not really a problem.
