@Cyrus22 I don't think it's OCD. I'm out of a cleaning person right now, but even when I had one for years, and she was quite good, I actually never got her to clean the private room/bath I host. I want to make sure it's cleaned to an inch of its life so no guest ever has cause to mention "dust" or anything else regarding cleanliness. "Spotlessly clean" and such has been mentioned in several of the reviews.
There are so many styles, standards and methods of cleaning, from the people who never clean anything to the people to whom cleaning means sweeping and mopping the parts of the floor where there's no furniture in the way, and just tidying up (as if you'd had a 10 year do the cleaning), to those who obsess with cleaning things that really don't need it at all (like my OCD friend who won't use a towel more than once or sleep on a set of sheets more than 2 nights).
Living in the tropics, I could spend 24/7 dealing with the dust in the dry season, the bugs in the wet season, constantly powerwashing the black mold that builds up on outside walls and walkways, and the ever-present dog hair from my constant shedder. But I'd like to have time for other things, so I've gotten good at turning a blind eye to it if it's not in spaces the guests have access to or would care about. But when I do buckle down to clean, I start at the ceiling and work down, and clean every square centimeter of the space, including turning furniture over and vacuuming the bottoms, emptying drawers and vacuuming them out. So I can never understand when hosts say they accidentally missed the dirty tissues under the bed that the guest pointed out shortly after arriving, because I don't miss anything. I'd rather know that one room is thoroughly clean and not have to think about it for awhile, other than sweeping and a little dusting, than have the whole house "sort of" clean. But like I said, there's different cleaning styles.
