Purpose

At Ashray Living, we are committed to maintaining a clean, hygienic, and comfortable living environment for all residents. Our housekeeping services are designed to ensure cleanliness, safety, and smooth day-to-day operations within the premises.

1. Housekeeping Timings

  • Professional Housekeeping services are carried out daily between 10:00 AM and 06:00 PM. After these hours only general housekeeping will be provided.
  • Residents are requested to cooperate with the housekeeping staff during these hours to ensure proper cleaning and maintenance of rooms and common areas.

2. Room Cleaning Procedure

  • Routine cleaning of rooms is generally conducted in the absence of residents.
  • Housekeeping staff may access rooms using authorized duplicate keys strictly for cleaning and maintenance purposes.
  • Residents who prefer room cleaning only in their presence must inform the Property Supervisor in advance.
  • Such requests will be accommodated within the designated housekeeping hours only.

Residents are expected to:

  • Keep their rooms reasonably clean and organized.
  • Avoid littering in rooms, corridors, washrooms, pantry areas, or other common spaces.

  • Residents are required to cooperate during such activities and provide access to rooms whenever necessary.

6. Deep Cleaning Charges

  • During periodic or surprise inspections, if a room is found excessively dirty, unhygienic, or requiring professional deep cleaning services, the cost of such cleaning may be charged to the residents of that room.
