Preparing a Guest Bathroom
When hosting for events or overnight guests, it’s important to provide a clean and well-stocked guest restroom for people to use. For many, the restroom is a personal space that can make or break their experience in your home. An unkempt restroom can easily make a lasting impact on guests, especially those who are staying overnight. To ensure your restroom helps guests feel comfortable and welcome, we came up with a few pointers to consider.
Scrub the Tub
Not only is it important to have clean restrooms for guests, it’s vital for maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Above all, the restroom is among the most essential places in your home to keep clean. A clean restroom helps guests feel welcome and leaves a good impression. Before you stock and prepare your bathroom, make sure to scrub it from top to bottom. Remember, the small details make a big difference. Cleaning behind the toilet may seem like overkill, but those hard-to-reach areas are places that tend to draw the eye.
Stock Up
For all guests, especially overnight ones, we highly recommend making a trip to the store to stock up on essential bath products. Beyond things like soap and toilet paper, try to anticipate their needs before they occur. It’s a lifesaver to find a jar full of cotton balls after realizing you forgot your own. Small things like this will make a big difference in how they experience your home. Razors, q-tips, mouthwash, toothpaste, extra toothbrushes—these are just a few of the things that can make an impact for overnight guests.
Freshen Up
Another great way to make your guests feel welcome is by peppering a few delightful scents throughout your guest restroom. Soaps, oils, candles, toilet sprays, and other similar products make your restroom even more pleasant to use. They help mask odors and give your bathroom a wonderful fragrance all throughout the day. If you want to take it even further, opt for an automatic air freshener or sanitizer that sprays periodically.
Towels Galore
Without a doubt, towels are essential in the restroom. Honestly, the more the merrier. The last thing a guest wants is to reach over to an empty rack after getting out of the shower. Towels have multiple purposes and clean, fresh linens can make all the difference when staying overnight. Make sure your guest restroom has a plethora of different sized towels for various uses. Also, quality goes a long way. We recommend splurging on soft and plush towels for maximum comfort. After all, there’s nothing worse than a towel that feels like sandpaper.
