Properties that offer long-stay services and cater to long-stay reservations, for example apartments, student accommodation or hybrid properties that are a mix of rooms and apartments, do not need to offer daily housekeeping. In Mews Operations, you can provide housekeeping once per week or once every two weeks for long-stay reservations by adjusting the Housekeeping interval setting, which is the number of days after which housekeeping is provided. You find the setting under the main menu > Settings > Services, on the service or on one of its space categories. You can set the housekeeping interval for a whole long-stay service, or, in a hybrid property, for a single space category of a stay service.
