We're considering switching from 10-4 to 11-4. The only thing stopping me is the fact that if we do that, I have a sneaking feeling that the late check out requests won't slow down so what's the point? Thoughts?

I use 11 to 4. My house keeper needs every bit of this time to clean a 3/2 house.

I don't get many late checkout request. The only time I allow it is when I don't have a same day check-in.  

I usually offer an early check in or late checkout when the schedule allows it.

One guy checked out 45 min late and my housekeeper sat close to the end of the drive way (she's too nice to pull up to the house), but the guy saw her and must have felt bad and gave her a $20 tip.

I dis buy a super capacity washer and dryer since the laundry is the bottle neck in getting the house ready. I do have extra sheets, but she always just does all the laundry and remakes the beds while she cleans the house.
