Here Are Some Simple Measures That You Can Take To Ensure The Freshness And Comfort Of The Guest Room:

Rotate the bed linens: The bed in the guest room will only be used when you have guests staying there. Otherwise, there is a chance that the covers on the bed, the pillow covers and blankets can become dusty and dirty due to the fact that it is not used. It is a good idea to have a dust cover on the bed or you can also rotate the bed linens regularly along with the ones in the other rooms.

Ensure that the towels are wrapped: If you have towels separately for guests to use, then it makes sense to have the towels wrapped in proper laundry bags so that these too do not become dirty or stale due to disuse. Do ensure that you dry and air the towels properly before you put them in or you risk them smelling moldy and damp when  used by your guests.

Enclose supplies in the pack: If you are keeping some hygiene supplies like soap, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrush etc. in the guest room or bathroom, then it is a good idea to keep these in the pack. This way the supplies will not lose their freshness or the fragrance when the guest in question starts using them. If possible do keep a spare set in your supplies cupboard and ensure that these supplies get used before they expire to prevent wastage.

Keep it simple: It is a good idea to have furniture that is simple to use and convertible when it comes to décor of the guest room. This way there is good and proper use of the space that you do have. At the same time it is better to keep this space uncluttered in order to ensure that the guests can keep their luggage when they visit.
