I always leave a place as clean as I find it and usually end up buying extra kitchen equipment!
That is the prime reason we have a permanent set of keys and just give him a bell to see if it is free, we always leave it cleaner than we find it. To the extent that he doesn't bother going up there if we have been in any more. He knew it was fit for the next guests.

I will give him a bell and ask whats the chance.
