Today, there is a very good alternative place to stay when you want to sleep in a very cozy bed after a very long travel. Compared to hotels, these places usually have very marvelous architectural designs or see a very relaxing garden and very good meals to wake up for breakfast. They called this the bed and breakfast inn.

But if you are an owner of this who already established a system to run the entire place but is seeking to give more efficient services to their clients, then you should make a list of all the obligations and assign these to your employees. Delegate their duties well so that you can achieve that efficiency that you want to have. With this, here are some of the tips that can help you run your bed and breakfast Lisbon inn more efficiently.

It will be helpful for you if you prepare the table and the plates, spoons, forks, glasses, knives at night and cook the breakfast early in the morning so you can serve it. It will also be nice if you can ask your customers what they meal they would want for tomorrow so you could cook it for them.

As you prepare the meals, let your employees clean the entire place. They could start sweeping the floor or even get the dusts from the furniture. They could even decorate the place so that your clients will have to wake up in a fresh mornings. They can put fresh flowers in the vase or even prepare a good coffee for them.

Never fail to keep the dining area clean. If your guest will see that your dining area is clean, they will become satisfied with your services. After the first batch of diners eat, directly remove all the used utensils then clean the table. When the area is already clean, put the new set of utensils for the next batch of diners.

Always keep clean rooms after your customers leave. After your customers leave directly clean the room by removing trash, changing the towels and toiletries, change the bed sheets and the pillowcases. This is for the next room users to have very good stay in your cozy place because it is clean.

Make sure that your reception area is clean and neat. This is one way to make your guests be impressed because you gave them a good impression with the neatness of the guest receiving area. In addition, always make sure that you can properly entertain them and feel very much welcome into your inn.

If you have free time, you can start doing other types of works in running the business like taking care of the accounting, marketing, purchasing groceries and paying bills. In this time, you also have a time to update the information of you inn in your website or reply to any inquiries to your potential clients.

Aside from contacting and making networks with you customers, you should also make a contact list to all the services that you might need in the future to maintain your inn. A time will really come where you will need the services of the electricians, appliance repairs, plumber, and many others. No inn owner would want to hold the operations of the business just because of this occasional crisis.
