General Information Check-Out Time Check-out is 11:00 a.m. To avoid “late check-out charges,” please personally check out and turn in your room key and/or your access card at your front desk by 11:00 a.m. If your schedule requires that you stay beyond 11:00 a.m., with advance notice, the front desk will provide you with short-term luggage storage arrangements (see special note under “Dining” about lunch on your last day).
Access Cards and Wristbands Your access card or the colored wristband you were given at check-in allows you entry into your designated dining room. You will need to show the dining attendant either your card or wristband each time you enter the dining room. Your access card also allows you entry, free of charge, to UCLA’s recreational facilities, and needs to be shown to the attendant at the entrance to these facilities. Your card is also necessary for access to residential buildings. Please take care not to lose or misplace your access card or wristband, as there is a charge for these items if not returned upon check-out.
Housekeeping Sunset Village and De Neve Plaza: Our housekeeping staff will clean your room each day. This
includes making your bed, cleaning your bathroom, vacuuming, providing fresh towels and toiletries, if needed, and emptying waste baskets. All Other Suites and High Rises: For groups staying longer than seven days, our housekeeping staff will clean your room on a designated day once a week. Your room will be vacuumed, dusted, have its trash emptied, and be provided with a new linen pack, unless other arrangements have been made by your group leader. To request fresh towels, please contact the front desk staff. The towels will then be delivered to your room at a designated time. Contact your front desk for exact times.
Parking All cars parked on campus are required to have a valid parking permit displayed on the front windshield or dashboard, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, or a citation will be issued. Each 24-hour day starts and ends at 7:00 a.m. A new permit for the following day must be displayed if your car remains parked any time after 7:00 a.m. Be sure to have a permit for all days during your stay — including your check-out day. You can purchase parking permits at the parking/information kiosks located throughout the campus or from your conference organization, if prior arrangements have been made for this option.
Meeting Room Temperatures Every effort is made to keep meeting room temperatures as comfortable as possible. However, we recommend layered clothing that can be removed or added, depending on the temperature of your particular meeting room.
Campus Visitor BruinCard Guests can purchase a Campus Visitor BruinCard and add cash to it in increments of $5 to use on purchases throughout the campus. Cards are available for purchase at the BruinCard Office in Sproul Hall or at BruinCard kiosks located in De Neve Plaza, Rieber Hall, Hedrick Hall, and Covel Commons.
Laundry Facilities Laundry equipment is located in each housing facility. A Campus Visitor BruinCard is needed to operate the machines.
