Some crew hotels which actually employer their cleaners will give them our scheduled checkout times.
The trouble is mostly with contract cleaners who get paid by the room... they don't want to skip a room if they can help it. They also don't want to wait around for you to leave because they don't get paid to wait either. It's kind of their passive/aggressive way of hinting that they want you to GTFO so they can finish and go home, and they don't give a rip about airline schedules.
Also doesn't help that crew leave their hangers out when they leave.
