<\/p>\nWhether it\u2019s your old college roommate, your parents or your brother-in-law, having a guest stay over can be a lot of fun. How can you create the best experience at your house? By creating a guest room that will make them comfortable. The key? Be prepared. Small touches can make a big difference. Here are six ways you can create a guest room that is ready for any kind of guest (including the forgetful ones!).<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Have everything your guest needs\u2026and then some. Stock up on toiletries such as shampoo, body wash, toothpaste and extra toothbrushes in case your guest forgets. Give them some reading material and put some easy-to-read books or magazines on the nightstand. Last but not least, provide your guest with a glass, carafe of water or some bottles of water. This way they don\u2019t have to wander if they\u2019re thirsty at night.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Speaking of nighttime, does your guest have proper lighting? Don\u2019t leave them in the dark without bedside lighting! Having a lamp nearby will allow them to read in bed and the convenience to switch off the light without having to get out of bed too. See our selection of lamps, lampshades, chandeliers<\/a> and other lighting accessories on our online catalog.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It\u2019s inevitable that your guest will ask you for the Wi-Fi password. Be one step ahead by writing down any security codes, passwords and having an extra key for them by the time they arrive. Having an extra key will be convenient for your guest to go and come as they please.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n There\u2019s nothing better than fresh, clean laundry! Your guest will feel right at home when they don\u2019t have to worry about bringing extra blankets or towels. If you want to take it to the next level, add a luxurious robe. You can place these on their bed, or have a designated basket and keep them there for future guests.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If your guest is coming on a day where you don\u2019t have the day off from work, give them some information about your town. Suggest where they can find local coffee, where they can grab lunch nearby, or a public park they can go to if they want to enjoy the outdoors. They might have done their own research, but it\u2019s great in case they didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you don\u2019t have a guest room, but you have a lot of visitors, consider buying a sleeper sofa<\/a>. Be sure to clear a space for your sleeper sofa guest so they feel like they still have a space of their own to put their luggage. Even if you do have a guest room, having an extra place to sleep can always come in handy.<\/p>\n Like we said before, a little can go a long way. Creating a guest room that makes your guests feel like they\u2019re at home may inspire them to do the same!<\/p>\n At Stowers Furniture, we want to make home furnishings a fun and easy process.
