Beautiful Bedroom for Guests

Being the owner you always want to make some changes to your vacation rental to make it better than best. However, when it comes to doing something new people end up at changing the interior or applying new color or decorating it. Often the most important part of the guest’s staying gets ignored while upgrading the vacation rental i.e. bed.

No matter how perfect your kitchen or out yard is, if your beds fail at providing the comfort and relaxations to the guests, they will end up at cutting your stars on review board.

Here are some tips which will help you in making relaxing bed and beddings.

1. Find the perfect bed

The size selection depends on the room and also on which kind of guest are going to visit you, like for families, “captain’s bunk beds” that have a twin bed on top and a full-size bed below would be perfect. Also, in general people prefer bigger beds do go for king or queen size beds. So, choose the bed accordingly.

2. Have delightful décor

Another important aspect of bed is the decoration around it. No one likes the beds which don’t have side tables or nightstands. While decorating the bedrooms, be smart with the layouts, you can keep the beds in the middle at the center of the wall, which make it more useful as it’s easily accessible from both sides. Also, bed is important piece of furniture; do choose the rest of things like dresser or lockers accordingly.

3. Kill the bed bugs

Bed bugs will not only kill your guest’s sleep but they will also kill your ratings. Usually, the issue of bed bugs happens with the wooden beds as the bugs find a more porous surface for laying eggs in wood. So you can opt for the metal bed frames so that you can get over the bugs issues. Another option is regular pest controls which can certainly reduce the bed bugs.

4. Cozy beddings

Good sleep is all about the comfortable bed and cozy bedding. Make sure that you do have two sets of bed sheets for each bed along with two pillows per person, one is firm and other is soft. Choose the bed sheet materials wisely, you can opt for the cotton-polyester blend sheet as they are more durable, resist wrinkles, and are accessible to launder. The other important aspect of the bedding is to keep it clean, a dusty or starched bed sheets can be worse nightmare for the visitors.

5. Be open to complaints

To run a successful vacation rental business you must need to learn take complaints seriously. If your guests complain about the bed, do check it whether it’s too hard to sleep or does it have lumps? If your answer is yes, start working on it. Take your eyes on complaints regarding comfort, cleanliness and bedbugs, try to solve it immediately.

The above are some fine tips which will help you in serving a good night’s sleep to your guest and also help you to cope up with the complaints.

    All good information, however, most rentals have a rental agency and they handle all the linens. Owner provided linens are get taken by the cleaning services. Only added comment, use the best mattress pad and pillows you can find, HUGE difference!

    A very useful article – thank you!
    When it comes to bedding, while most people prefer natural fillings such as feathers etc, advertise a spare set of hyper-allergenic bedding for those with an allergy to animal-based fillings.
