Ayres Cares Clean & Safe Stay

A message from the Ayres Family

At Ayres Hotels, our core beliefs are founded on the principles of caring about people, valuing teamwork and delivering results. As we navigate this time of uncertainty, we believe our ability to adapt while maintaining these values will pave our way through the challenges ahead.

With so much uncertainty surrounding this pandemic, we want to assure you that the health and well-being of our guests and team members have been, and always will be, our top priority. 

To ensure your safety, we have stepped up precautionary measures by implementing our Ayres Cares Clean & Safe Stay program that adheres to the American Hotel & Lodging Association’s (AHLA) Safe Stay - Enhanced Industry-Wide Hotel Cleaning Standards, CDC guidelines, and CAL/OSHA requirements.

The program includes:

  • Increased frequency of cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting of public spaces, guestrooms, and back of house with attention to commonly touched surfaces   
  • Use of EPA Certified cleansers that are CDC compliant and effective against contagious viruses, bacteria and other airborne and bloodborne pathogens including Human Corona Virus, Influenza, Adenovirus type 4 and many others.

We are truly grateful for the confidence you have placed in us as your host and hope that our detailed plan will provide peace of mind during your travels.

Cleaning Products & Protocols

Cleaning Products

We are using EPA certified cleansers that are CDC compliant and effective against contagious viruses, bacteria and other airborne and bloodborne pathogens including Human Corona Virus, Influenza, Adenovirus type 4 and many others.

Public Spaces

We are increasing frequency of cleaning and implementing enhanced sanitization protocols with particular attention to commonly touched surfaces including, but not limited to, front desk check-in counters, elevators and elevator buttons, door handles, public bathrooms, room keys, locks, ATM’s, handrails, gym equipment, business center, dining surfaces and seating areas. In accordance with physical distancing guidelines, furniture layouts, pool seating and dining rooms are rearranged to allow for 6 feet of separation. Team members are practicing social distancing and monitoring public areas to ensure proper queuing.

Guest Rooms

We have incorporated enhanced cleaning and sanitization protocols into our standard operating procedures for cleaning guestrooms that include particular attention to commonly touched surfaces including, remote controls, toilet seats and handles, door and furniture handles, water faucet handles, nightstands, telephones, in-room control panels, light switches, alarm clocks and luggage racks (Figure 1: Commonly Touched Surfaces) To limit the risk of transmission, housekeeping will not enter a guestroom unless specifically requested by the guest. In addition, paper amenities and collateral have been reduced.

Meeting & Event Spaces

We are sanitizing and disinfecting equipment and meeting amenities before and after each use. Our meeting configurations have been modified to allow for physical distancing between guests (Figure 2: Meeting Configurations).

Laundry

We are washing linen at high temperatures in accordance with CDC guidelines. 

Guest Elevators

Buttons and railings are disinfected at regular intervals throughout the day.

Room Recovery Protocol

In the event of a presumptive case of COVID-19, we will remove the guestroom from service and quarantine it. We will then follow enhanced safety protocols to sanitize and disinfect the guest room with hospital-grade disinfectant solution.
