Airbnb Turnover Cleaning Checklist for Toronto Hosts
In short term rentals, the clean between guests decides your reviews. Guests notice a hair in the shower long before they notice your decor. This turnover checklist covers what hosts in Toronto and the GTA should expect after every stay.
Before cleaning starts
Check for damage, missing items or anything left behind, and take photos
Strip all beds and collect used towels
Empty every garbage and recycling bin
Start laundry first so it is done by the end of the clean
