Never tipped housekeeping at hotels for standard, other then change that I didn't want to take on a plane ride. Travel in the EU, Asia, Americas.
For longer stay places at non-hotels, I have tipped for service outside the standard level. i.e. extra towels, change sheets every day, do laundry
My thinking is - if tipping is required, it should be in the room price. Plus business travelers don't have a ability to expense house keeping tips (unlike food tips which are normalized in US expense reports)
I was about to say, for work trips I absolutely can’t and don’t. I’m not paying for it, I probably don’t want to actually be whenever I’m at anyway. I might for exceptional service on a holiday or if I want quick service again but never do as a standard.
