COVID-19 Safety Information for Guests
We want to reassure anyone staying with us or looking to book accommodation that we have implemented enhanced standards and procedures of safety and hygiene so you can book and stay with confidence.
Pre-Arrival
– House-keeping staff are provided with PPE when cleaning apartments during high alert periods and have been trained to fully understand the importance of our enhanced procedures in order to keep themselves safe and to reduce the risk of infection to guests.
– We already have a policy of using a new set of clean cloths for the servicing of apartments, so you can be reassured that your apartment hasn’t been cleaned with contaminated cloths.
– We also already have a policy of the ‘right cloth for the job’ to avoid cross contamination within a guest’s apartment.
– Cloths are always washed at 60 degrees C to kill any bacteria and viruses.
– We already have a policy to minimise the use of sprays and in the main all surfaces are cleaned with hot soapy water with disinfectant; some specific areas require lime-scaler and bleach.
– Staff have been instructed to regularly wash their hands in line with the NHS guidelines.
