Confirming amenities
Many guests filter search results by amenities, so adding everything you offer will help you increase bookings. It’s important that your listing is accurate and it’s a good idea to periodically review it to update your listing details so you can deliver a great stay and maintain good reviews.
Amenities guests expect
Guests expect some basics when they stay with you so they can freshen up and have a good night’s rest.
- Bedding. This includes a bed sheet; a blanket, comforter, or top-sheet; and one sleeping pillow per person with a pillowcase.
- Working locks. For a private room, this means providing a working lock on the door to the private entrance. For an entire home, this means providing a working lock on the main entrance.
- Bathroom basics. This means providing:
- Shampoo and/or 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner
- Body soap
- Hand soap
- Access to full bathroom facilities, including a seated, flushable toilet, a bathtub or shower, a sink, and hot and cold running water
Facilities
Many guests book listings specifically for the availability of a pool, hot tub, or gym. If you offer one of these facilities, be sure to specify if it's available for a guest’s private use, or if it’s shared with others.
