In addition to the primary facility, the contractor must have a minimum of two (2) overflow hotels that are rated by AAA and meet or exceed the AAA three Diamond hotel rating. The overflow hotels 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 rate as the primary lodging facility. The contractor shall provide a microwave and refrigerator in each authorized CIVMARs room and maintain at least three (3) functional washers and three (3) functional dryers at each site. The contractor shall provide free local telephone calls and a free, functional internet connection in each room.

The lodging facility must be within 1/8 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. Each authorized CIVMAR occupant shall be given a key to his/her room at no charge and with no deposit fee. The primary facility will provide lodging to the majority (greater than 50%) of the authorized CIVMARs at all times. The overflow facilities will only be used when the primary lodging facility exceeds its capacity. Overflow hotel properties may change throughout the life of the contract as long as the properties meet all the requirements of the contract and are validated and approved in writing by the Contracting Officer Representative (COR) and Contracting Officer prior to any changes.

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 250 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. Reservations will be made in advance of arrival of the hotel guests by the MSC designated Point of Contact (POC). If reservations are made in advance , every effort shall be made by the Contractor to provide a room within one hour of arrival. To the extent possible, the Government will make every effort to provide advance reservations. Occasionally there will be late arrivals and every effort shall be made by the Contractor to accommodate those authorized CIVMARs arriving late. 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 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) workdays in advance with adequate justification, to the MSC CSU-W Site Manager for approval.

The Contractor shall provide a single room night rate per day, including all applicable taxes in the composite rate. However, generally, the U.S. Government is tax exempt.
