What Short-Term Rental Guests Look for When Renting a Property

The Importance of Impeccable Cleaning Standards In the competitive world of short-term rentals, cleanliness is king.  

Renting out a pristine property isn't just a perk—it's an expectation especially when you have children.  In fact, from many guests' experiences cleanliness is often the deciding factor that can make or break a booking. High standard cleanliness which Sela Care Services provide is important when running an Airbnb, short- term rental let or service accommodation business. 

It will affect your customer reviews, guest satisfaction and your property’s long-term success. We will give you 6 tips guests feedback after their stay.  

1. First Impressions Matter - When guests walk through the door, the first thing they notice is the overall cleanliness of your property. A spotless entryway, sparkling floors, and a fresh scent sets the tone for the rest of their stay.  

2. Detailed Bathroom - Cleaning bathrooms are a top priority for renters. They expect gleaming sinks, spotless mirrors, and immaculate toilets. Grimy showers, mouldy tiles, or unpleasant odours are instant deal-breakers.  

3. Kitchen Cleanliness - Many guests choose Airbnb over hotels for the convenience of a kitchen. They want to see sparkling countertops, spotless appliances, and clean, organised cabinets. Any signs of leftover food or crumbs can lead to negative reviews.  

4. Living Spaces - That shine and free from dust, polished furniture, to spotless windows, living areas all spaces should be inviting and clean. Attention to detail in these spaces can significantly enhance guest comfort and satisfaction.  

5. Odour-Free Environment - Unpleasant odours are a major turn-off for guests. A fresh, clean scent throughout your property can make a significant difference in guest perception and comfort.   

6. High-Touch Areas - In today’s health-conscious world, guests are more aware of the importance of sanitising high-touch areas. These include door handles, light switches, remote controls, and other frequently touched surfaces.
