If I got that envelope, I think I'd write up a letter to that effect, put it into the envelope, and then ask to speak to the manager, and show him the letter.
But odds are, I wouldn't want to take up my time while travelling, so I'd just leave it empty, and they can think I'm a cheapskate I guess. And they should just pay the maids and not rely on tips - don't lay a guilt trip on me for not leaving a tip. Where is the 'hospitality' in the hospitality business - making your 'guests' uncomfortable is a lousy way to treat them?

Since I still w*rk part time and travel a lot on business, I stay in upwards of 25 hotel stays per year and belong to all the points clubs. One thing I have noticed more these days is an e-mail after each stay asking to comment on the "experience". More than a few times I have written less than good comments and a few times, the hotel manager actually called me about what I wrote.
Seems like that feedback system may have some influence.
