Sanitisation

Hygiene practices include thorough sanitisation to remove harmful bacteria, viruses and germs from surfaces. Housekeepers use appropriate detergents and disinfectants to ensure that high-touch areas such as doorknobs, light switches, countertops and bathroom fixtures are properly disinfected. This helps to prevent the spread of infection and provides a safe environment for guests.

Bedding and Linen

Hygiene standards require regular cleaning and changing of bedding and linen. Housekeepers should follow proper washing and drying procedures to ensure that these items are free of dirt, stains and allergens. Bed sheets, pillowcases, blankets and towels should be washed at high temperatures to effectively kill bacteria and mites.

Bathroom Hygiene

Bathrooms in short stay accommodation should be meticulously cleaned to maintain hygiene standards. Housekeepers should scrub and disinfect toilets, sinks, showers and baths. They should pay attention to areas prone to moisture, such as grout lines and corners, to prevent the growth of mould and mildew.

Kitchen Hygiene

The kitchen area requires special attention to ensure proper hygiene. Housekeepers should clean all surfaces, including worktops, sinks and stove/cooktop, using appropriate cleaning products. They should also wash crockery, utensils and kitchen equipment. Regularly emptying and cleaning the fridge and disposing of food waste are also important in maintaining a hygienic kitchen environment.

Air Quality

Hygiene extends beyond visible surfaces. Housekeepers should take care to maintain good air quality in the rental property. This may include proper ventilation, regular cleaning of air conditioning or heating filters and the use of air purifiers where appropriate.

Waste Disposal

Proper waste disposal is essential to maintain hygiene. Housekeepers should regularly empty bins and ensure that waste is properly separated and disposed of according to local regulations. This will help prevent odours and pests, as well as it promotes a clean and healthy environment.

Personal Hygiene

Housekeepers should follow good personal hygiene practices when carrying out their cleaning duties. This includes wearing appropriate protective equipment such as gloves and masks, maintaining clean clothing, and practicing good hand hygiene by washing hands thoroughly before and after cleaning tasks.

Communication

Clear communication with guests about hygiene practices is important. Providing information about cleaning procedures, highlighting the steps taken to ensure cleanliness and hygiene, and addressing any specific concerns can help reassure guests about their wellbeing during their stay.

Prioritising Hygiene

By prioritising hygiene in the cleaning of short-term rental accommodation, owners and managers demonstrate their commitment to the safety and well-being of guests. It creates a positive impression, promotes guest satisfaction and encourages repeat bookings.
