Guest Room Essentials
Whether you’re organizing a guest room or setting up an AirBnB, there are always necessities to making your guests feel welcomed in their home away from home. Oftentimes, hosting can be rather overwhelming. Here is a standard list we provide our clients based on their needs and location; we add modifications. Every person won’t need the same things, so take what you need and give what you can.
“Gratitude is a two fold love - love coming to visit us, and love running out to greet a welcomed guest.” ~Henry Van Dyke
