I usually leave 1 set for every 2 nights and that has been sufficient but I always have more on hand in case a guest asks for more.

@Ken105 it depends of your prices. If you offer expensive accomodation then you should offer 3 towels per person and change it every 2 days 

If you have some average economic prices then you can give 2 towels per person and change them every 5 days

You will see that towels makes the most of your rental loundry so don't be to generous if your prices are low.

I too am in Denver.

We provide a set of towels for each person every two days.

Laudering towel and keeping up with the linen takes up the most time when preparing for guests. We are thinking about starting a towel and linen service to drop off clean towels and bed sheets.

 

We'll see.

Hi there- I'm in the uk and been a host for 5 years now. 

Regarding towels- I provide a large bath towel and a small hand towel per person staying, but I do not refresh them if the guest or guests are staying less than a week. If more than a week then I will. I don't clean the room during a guests stay, nor do I change bed linen. 

I don't think it's what's expected of you per se, it's your listing, your home, your rules and you are what makes it all special- if you want to change towels every day, then do so, but it's not 'expected' of you

I only allow 4 nights maximum:) I don't change the towels during those days, no one has asked me for different towels and the reviews are good. If I did allow long term stays I would gie new towels and lines once a week.
