Sample tips

A taste of the weekly email

01

Light the entry

Guests often arrive tired or after dark. A plug-in lamp or motion light by the door sets the tone in the first ten seconds.

02

Label the obvious

A small card on the thermostat, the coffee maker and the trash bins saves you a dozen messages a month.

03

Two of everything

Two pillows per guest, two towels per guest, two places to set a phone by the bed. Little doubles feel generous.

04

Sit in every seat

Once a season, stay a night. Sit in each chair, use each outlet, read in bed. You'll find what's missing fast.
