Cleaning Protocols - Pasadena Rose & Crown Hotel
During these challenging times with the COVID-19 Pandemic, we deem it essential to implement new sanitation guidelines and processes at our hotel in order to provide as safe an environment as possible for our guests and associates.
Here are some measures we have implemented to work towards a more sanitary and safe experience, for all:
- Sneeze guard at Front Desk to prevent spread at lobby
- Modified breakfast procedures. Limited items are available to take to your room.
- Front desk staff are instructed to wear disposable gloves
- Room key cards and pens are sanitized after each use.
- Installed hand sanitizer stations
- Our pool and Fitness room are closed as per CDC guidelines.
- Vacated guest rooms are disinfected with a broad-spectrum disinfectant registered with the Environmental Protection Agency. This innovative product contains no chlorine, phosphates or harsh chemicals and has a botanically derived active ingredient.
The housekeeping staff has been trained to look at the guest rooms differently and clean and disinfect all of the areas that are touched by guests:
- Door handles, jams and the sides of doors
