Special touches<br />
If you plan to include a television, select<br />
a model that is easy to operate. If multiple<br />
remotes can’t be avoided, mark the<br />
important keys with bright fingernail<br />
polish, or type up a simple list of stepby-step<br />
instructions. Also, think about<br />
leaving a stack of books in a variety of<br />
genres for your guests to enjoy—and<br />
possibly take home with them. A fulllength<br />
mirror is a great perk, especially<br />
if your guests are in town for a special<br />
occasion and they might want to check<br />
their look. And finding a luxurious robe<br />
in the closet will make your guests feel<br />
like they have arrived!<br />
The extra mile<br />
Make it personal by adding a few of<br />
your guests’ favorite things. Fresh flowers,<br />
a box of chocolates, a current issue<br />
of their favorite magazine, candles, salt<br />
scrubs, locally made food or wine—<br />
whatever you include will be an unexpected<br />
treat.<br />
Having—or being—a guest is never<br />
totally easy. But these extra preparations<br />
will tell your guests they are welcome.<br />
Enjoy your company and don’t<br />
underestimate the power of a mint on<br />
their pillow.<br />
