Provide Essential Amenities

Create a basket with toiletries, fresh towels, a phone charger, and a spare key. Include local magazines or a book on the nightstand for a thoughtful touch.

Improve Lighting

Good lighting is essential. Ensure there’s a bedside lamp for reading and a main light that’s bright but not harsh. Add fairy lights for a festive touch.
