As to folks not reading the guide book: try to look at yours through the eyes of someone reading it for the first time. Would YOU read it, or does it seem too intimidating? Break it into small bites. One topic per page (or section). Mine is organized into:
House rules
Orientation - inside
Orientation - outside & neighborhood
Places of interest & restaurants within walking distance
Places of interest a short Uber/Lyft ride away
Some maps showing where my house is in relation to points of interest
Sample menus
All of these are in a 3-ring binder, in plastic sleeve protecters and printed in a decent sized font. I can update easily as needed. Additionally, I have placed laminated notes on a few things around the apartment where they can't miss them.
Remember again to look at your space through the eyes of someone who has never stepped foot inside.
Happy hosting!
