What steps should I take to prepare my place for guests?

Ensuring your place is guest-ready involves several steps:
Consider self check-in: Provide access if you’re not around, making check-in convenient for guests.
Bulk-buy amenities: Stock up on essentials like soap, bottled water, or snacks to enhance guest comfort.
Keep extra linens: Have extra sets of sheets and towels available to avoid waiting on laundry.
Professional cleaning services: Consider hiring professional cleaning and management services. You can include a cleaning fee in your listing to offset the cost.
