Our 5-Step Cleaning Process To ensure a safe and comfortable stay, we follow a detailed five-step cleaning process aligned with public health guidelines and industry best practices. Step 1: Prepare We begin by setting the stage for an efficient and safe clean: - Ventilate the space before and during cleaning when possible - Use disinfectants approved by local and national health agencies (e.g., EPA, CDC) - Wash or sanitize hands thoroughly before and after each cleaning task - Gather fresh, sanitized cleaning supplies and protective gear Step 2: Clean Cleaning removes dust, dirt, and debris from surfaces: - Sweep, vacuum, dust, and mop all appropriate areas - Wash dishes and laundry using the highest heat setting possible - Wipe down surfaces such as countertops, tables, and appliances with soap and water Step 3: Sanitize Sanitizing reduces bacteria and germs on high-touch surfaces: - Apply disinfectant sprays to frequently touched areas including: >Doorknobs >Light switches >TV remotes >Faucet handles - Allow disinfectant to sit for the recommended time before wiping, if required Step 4: Check We double-check our work to ensure nothing is missed: - Inspect each room after cleaning and sanitizing - Re-clean or re-sanitize areas as needed - Ensure all guest essentials are clean, complete, and restocked Step 5: Reset To prevent cross-contamination, we only reset the space after cleaning is fully complete: - Wash or sanitize hands before handling clean linens and guest amenities - Replace used items with fresh, sanitized ones - Dispose of or wash all used cleaning cloths, supplies, and protective gear properly
