Simple Ways to Make Your Guests Comfortable

At some time of year we all have guests for one reason or another. Maybe they are family coming for a weekend visit or perhaps it's the holidays and everyone is gathering at your house. There are some simple things that you can do when preparing your house for guests.

Make sure your guest room is clean. There is nothing worse than going to visit someone and linen isn't fresh or the dressers are dusty. Your guest room may not be used often so clean it up before guests arrived. Wash the linen, Windex the windows, vacuum and most of all dust! Buy a scented candle or a plug in air freshener for the room.

Have a dresser top available or a nightstand top available so that your guests can put their toiletries on top of it. There is nothing worse than having to leave out of a suitcase for a few days. If you can spare a draw in a dresser let your guests know that they are free to unpack.

Make sure to have fresh towels, two facecloths, one for their face and one for their body as well as a bar of soap, toothpaste, etc. Often times in the midst of packing for a trip we forget the simplest of items and having a toothbrush or a fresh bar of soap handy is a wonderful thing.

Please make sure to put a small trash can in the guest room for your guests as well as an alarm clock. These are two things that come in handy when traveling. A fresh bouquet of flowers or a plan in the room also brings fresh life to the room and makes it inviting.

Lastly, ask your guests beforehand if there is anything special they want to eat while they are there or any particular breakfast foods. These tips will ensure that your guests feel warm and cared for while visiting your home.
