Guest guest Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 , This is a welcome trend. We each still need to be careful because of the use of ozone, anti-microbials and tea tree oil in this particular method. I've recently stayed in rooms using 3 different " clean " or " allergy free " protocols and each has been better than typical rooms. But one was untolerable. A recent older hotel had no such program, the hallways had fragrance but the rooms didn't. And the windows would open! I didn't need to immediately wash my clothes when I got home to get the stink of the " fresh fragrance " out of them.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 I have found more and more hotels are conscience of the problems of mold " allergy " and MCS. I have had a few very good experiences with hotels that understand it. My latest stay in Atlanta, they actually vacuumed the walls. The room was perfect, no smells, no air fresheners. My travel agent always stresses the " allergy " part of the reservation since the general public understands allergy rather than exposure. I think the hotel industry is becoming more aware of this problem and I am pleased they are actually recognizing the problem. Just STRESS in the reservations your limitations. Use a travel agent. You don't save any money by not using them and they have a little clout as far as I can see. > > , > > This is a welcome trend.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 I have also had lots of success with hotels. We don't travel frequently but I always call ahead and then a fews days ahead of arrival. I stress my MCS and ask that they don't use sprays, to use just hot water and vinegar, no bleach and to open the outside door or window if possible to air the room out,. So far all have been very cooperative especially Holiday Inns. I just explain how sick I can get and they usually listen and are understanding. I think more and more people are doing the same so they are familiar with the problem. Sue I have found more and more hotels are conscience of the problems of mold " allergy " and MCS.
