@Nora50 When we hosted long term guests, we made sure that they understood that certain supplies were "starter" amounts, and that they should expect to purchase additional supplies as needed. We also included mid-rental cleanings and linen changes in the final price to ensure that our property was being respected. Because most OTAs do not have the ability to add extra cleanings in the initial quote, we would confirm with the renter that they understood that this would be an additional charge and was not optional. Most guests like to have someone clean the bathrooms and provide clean towels and linens at two-week intervals (minimum -- but NOT daily).
Starter supplies were 4 rolls of toilet paper per bathroom, 2 rolls of paper towels in the kitchen, hotel size toiletries for guests who did not bring personal products. They were expected to purchase any additional paper products and toiletries.
Kitchen supplies were sugar, sugar substitute, salt and pepper and olive oil. A stack of 50 coffee filters and enough coffee for 4 morning pots (8 cup). Foil, plastic wrap and quart size storage bags. Nothing in the refrigerator. Enough dishwasher pods for 14 loads. Enough laundry pods and dryer sheets for 14 loads. A box of garbage bags. A supply of our preferred cleaning products along with a broom, Swiffer mop with pads and a compact vacuum.
