If, any time after award of the contract, any of the hotel (s) assigned to meet the requirements of the contract loses its AAA Three (3) Diamond Designation, the contractor will have up to twelve months to replace the effected hotel (s). In cases where it is determined the reason for the loss of AAA Three Diamond rating results in reduced quality of life or is a safety issue, CIVMARs will be moved to a new property as soon as feasible.

The proposed hotel (s) may be at different locations, however, each facility shall be located within the mileage/commute requirements stated above and shall provide the same or lower room-night rates. The contractor shall provide a microwave and refrigerator in each room and maintain at least two (2) functional washers and two (2) functional dryers at each site. In the case where one hotel is providing more than 50% of the room required, that facility should have three (3) functional washers and three (3) functional dryers. The contractor shall provide free functional internet connection in each room. Hotel guests will have access to an on-site Business Center, which will consist of an area with at least two (2) desks, two (2) computers, printer and a copier.

The lodging facility must be within 1/2 mile distance of a public transportation designated stop OR the lodging facility must provide transportation to/from the nearest public transportation designated stop with set schedule OR the lodging facility must provide round trip shuttle service comparable to that of public transportation within a five mile driving radius with set schedule.

The Contractor shall provide hotel rooms when called for by the COR and/or Contracting Officer or his/her designated representatives. The Contractor shall ensure a sufficient number of single rooms are available at all times to meet the Government’s needs. Based on previous history, the room nights will vary with an estimated average of 120 rooms per night, to as many as 175 rooms per night. The quantities of single rooms actually occupied for lodging on any one day may vary depending upon the fluctuating number of CIVMARs awaiting assignment or attending training. The length of a CIVMARs stay varies. Each authorized CIVMAR shall be entitled to a single room. The authorized CIVMARs will remain in the same facility from the day they check in until they check out with the exception of those moves at the request of the MSC Point of Contact (POC) based on availability of the contractor. The authorized CIVMARs may not be moved from one facility to another unless contractor submits a request three (3) working days in advance with adequate justification, to the MSC CSU-E Site Manager for approval.

Those requests will be marked “late arrival” if the CIVMAR will be arriving after 6 p.m., and if so, every effort will be made to provide an estimated time of arrival in the comments section. If the CIVMAR does not arrive after 6PM, the hotel is authorized to invoice MSC for cost of the room.

Reservations made will be held until 6 p.m. on the date of arrival. If the CIVMAR does not arrive by 6 p.m., and the hotel reservation has not been marked as “late arrival”, the hotel reservation will be cancelled by the hotel. If a CIVMAR reports to the hotel after a same day reservation has been cancelled, the contractor will advise the CIVMAR which hotel, based on availability, can accommodate their stay, contact the hotel and make a reservation. These CIVMARs are responsible for their own transportation between hotel (s).
