Involve your staff

Involve your guests

Guest involvement: Guests are asked to leave towels that they want to be changed on the floor – otherwise they will be used for one more day. This method conserves energy.

Building insulation: Insulation to conserve heat loss during the winter and maintain cooler temperatures during the summer has been installed.
