If you're traveling to a metropolitan district you'll most probably discover excellent substitutes to car rental. To make the major metro areas more pedestrian friendly most have developed an excellent grid of light rail, elevated rail, shuttle, bus, train, trolley, subway and taxi services. When you consider the costs of the rental car, parking, valet, gas, and insurance the public transit system becomes a healthy eco-friendly alternate. Try walking as you'll most likely find restaurants, drug stores, and entertainment near to your Newport News hotel. If the travel is less than 10 miles lease a bicycle. Treat yourself to a novel way of getting around, you could just find you like it!
Keep housekeeping away with the "Do Not Disturb" sign.
Give housekeeping a ring and let them know you won't be requiring their services. A lot of resources are consumed when a Newport News hotel suite is freshened up. Sheets and towels are washed using water, detergent, electricity, and gas. Countertops are washed with chemicals. A swept floor uses electric power. Why have the sample sized bottle of shampoo, conditioner, and lotion replaced when they're only partially used? In most cases daily room service is not really needed and you'll be helping the environment by not having your room cleaned every day.
