So optimierst du deine Abläufe als Gastgeber:in

Hosting takes time—but once you get the hang of it, you can optimize many aspects of your routine. That way, you get to focus on creating a memorable experience for your guests.

Setting up a cleaning routine helps make turnover tasks easier.

• Consider hiring a professional cleaner to help maintain consistency.
• Choose bedding and towels in similar colors, so you can wash them all at once.
• Keep an extra set of bedding and towels on hand for quicker turnarounds between guests.
• Plan for a regular deep clean to make cleaning easier between stays.
• Schedule a recurring order of your go-to cleaning products and other essentials, like toilet paper and soap. This can save time and help you avoid running out of supplies.
• Buy in bulk to stock up on the items you and guests go through the most, like shampoo and conditioner. 

Responding to guests’ messages doesn’t have to be time-consuming. Using Airbnb tools can set up more efficient communication with guests.

• Download the Airbnb app to reply promptly. Opt in to push notifications and keep your device handy with the sound on.
• Use scheduled messages to share certain details when guests are likely to want them, like confirming that guests received check-in instructions the day before their stay.
• Set up quick replies to respond to common questions faster by writing answers in advance. The Messages tab automatically suggests which one of your quick replies may best apply to a conversation.

Simplifying check-in can help your guests feel welcome. Consider adding a Co-Host to help manage your listing and reservations.

• Use the Arrival guide in your Listings tab to add important details, including your check-in method and time, directions, house manual, and wifi password.
• Opt for self check-in—using keypads, smart locks, or lockboxes—to save time and give guests greater flexibility.
• Provide a house manual to share instructions, like how to use amenities or access wifi.
