I had never in my life heard of this before now and I am no stranger to hotels.

I would go straight to the front desk, demand my money back for that day and then never stay with hotel again along with making sure the corporate office got a nice email about their bullshit policy.

Maybe over priced Vegas hotels can do this but any hotel I have ever stayed at needs to make the customer happy because the competition is so fierce. Most hotels will go out of their way to make sure you are happy. Not randomly inspect your room like you are a child.

Maids have access to your room if you stay at a hotel, along with most staff members. Many brands you are familiar with follow the Vegas model of 24 hours no access, someone is gonna see the room.

It supposedly is a policy for major chains. Hilton in DC did it to me and claimed the whole chain does it.

Most hotels should be doing it every 2 or 3 days at the latest. Maybe every 7 days if it is a hotel catering to long term guests.

Any longer than 7 days for inspecting and cleaning every room is asking for pest infestations, or worse.

As a hotel customer, I would not want to stay in one that does not a policy of frequent room inspections.
