Creating the Ultimate Guest Room

Expecting guests this weekend? Let's make them feel right at home. Here are some tips on how to create the ultimate guest retreat.

1.) Adding fresh flowers help make the space welcoming.

2.) Supply your guest with some empty hangers and drawers, so they can hang up their clothes and don't have to live out of their suitcase.

3.) Having a luggage rack gives your guest a place to put their luggage that is not on the floor, or worse the bed, when they are unpacking.

4.) Have some water bottles and snacks available in the room, so they don't have to go rummaging through the kitchen in the middle of the night when thirst/hunger strikes.

5.) A cozy robe and slippers are a nice touch to keep cozy when it is cold.

6.) Have fresh bath towels and extra toilet paper available, so they don't have to ask where they are stored.

7.) Supply some entertainment. Books, magazines and instructions on how to use the TV remote.

8.) Scented candle or diffuses, to keep the room smelling fresh and relaxing.

9.) Offer a new toothbrush, and have toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, bath wash, and some Advil just in case they forgot to bring with them.

10.) Have a card printed out that has your WIFI network and password, so it is easy for them to connect without having to ask.
