Section 11: General Information

Guidelines for Clothing Our rooms are comfortable, but please keep in mind the idea of sustainability and that our Housekeeping Staff need to easily and regularly clean your rooms; they will need to be kept very tidy. Bring the clothes and items you need to make you feel at home, but, keep in mind at the end of each year you have to bring most of these items back home. Think Marie Kondo: bring only the things that spark joy and be mindful, introspective and forward-thinking in your packing! Please make sure all personal items are permanently labeled.
