Host Tip

Eliminate friction. Guests shouldn't have to buy basic items or search for where things are. Ask yourself: "If I were staying here, what would I want?" Supply those things without overcompensating and cutting into your profits. If the stay feels intuitive, the 5-star review is inevitable.

Final Quick Check

2+ towels per guest? Kitchen fully functional? Beds hotel-quality? Wi-Fi fast & reliable? Essentials overstocked?
