Quick Checklist: What to Check Before Every Check-in
Receiving guests is always an opportunity to delight, but also a moment that requires attention to detail. A small forgetfulness can generate discomfort and impact the evaluation of your property. To help you keep everything under control, I've prepared a quick checklist with the main points that every host should check before guests arrive.

kitchen, without food scraps or accumulated garbage.
