Hosting, written down properly.

Practical pieces for Airbnb and short-term rental hosts — each one complete on its own, with templates you can copy, whatever tools you use.

• Airbnb self check-in instructions: a template that works at the door

  What to include, when to send the code, and a fill-in template for lockboxes, smart locks and buzzers — written for the guest standing outside with 4% battery.

• An Airbnb house manual example, section by section

  A worked example of a house manual guests actually read — what goes in, what stays out, and the order that matches the order questions arrive in.

• Airbnb welcome message templates: confirmation and pre-arrival

  The messages every booking should get, ready to copy — confirmation, pre-arrival and the day-of code — and the timing that makes each land when it's useful instead of when it's noise.
