Absolutely. The suggested percentage varies, but for a 100.00 room a five to seven dollar tip is adequate. (Typically they clean 7-11 rooms a day, so that would be a fair amount, if everyone tips. )

I had a friend who cleaned rooms on the north coast of Calif and she was always happy when someone left cash, grass, or other stuff. I helped her (for free) to help her day go more quickly and it was a good lesson on the carp housekeepers have to deal with. They have it worse than wait staff in restaurants at times.
Rules schmules. I tip them if they do something extra or helpful. On one recent visit, a housekeeper provided multiple extra pouches of decaf coffee for the coffeemaker. She also requested we "hide" them, so her boss wouldn't see that we had them. That housekeeper got a $10 tip that had naught to do with daily service. Her boss got nothing.
