Photo guide
Photos help hosts see the clean before guests do.
A photo handoff is not about micromanaging. It is about seeing the condition of the listing when you cannot inspect it yourself, especially when checkout, cleaning, and the next check-in all happen inside one tight window.
What to photograph
Bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, towels, supplies, entry areas, trash areas, and visible damage or stains.
When it matters most
Remote hosting, same-day turnovers, new listings, new cleaners, and high-value bookings.
How to use photos
Review them for readiness, supply issues, damage, missed details, linen setup, towel placement, and patterns that should change the checklist.
Before you book
The quote should answer the host questions first.
Timing
What are checkout and check-in times, and is the turnover window realistic?
Access
How will the cleaner enter, park, handle building rules, and reach supplies?
Linens
Are clean sets ready, where do used linens go, and is laundry part of the scope?
Proof
Do you want photos, supply notes, issue notes, or a ready-status handoff?
