Posted on By

When looking for a hotel,  check out their new cleaning policies and ensure that they enforce mask-wearing and social distancing in their hotels. A good example is the Coventry apartment suite and the Ramada. They have regular, stringent cleaning procedures in place for the safety of guests. There should be multiple hand sanitizing stations and all staff should be using masks and be knowledgable about the hotel’s social distancing policy.

Consider choosing a serviced apartment or Airbnb
