Take into consideration the things that make you feel at peace when staying in an unfamiliar place.  This is the most important factor to make your guests feel right at home in a guest room. It will also give them a warm and cozy feeling knowing their comfort was thought of when you invited them into your home.

Follow these suggestions when shopping at your local PMD Furniture Direct™ franchisee to create a comfortable, relaxing experience for your guests:

1. Keep it clutter free. Remove any furniture that might give the room a cluttered feel. Guests will feel more at home if they have enough room to accommodate themselves.
2. Don’t furnish with all your unwanted furniture. This too can make a room feel cluttered and hodge-podge.
3. Give the bed all the comfort you would want if you were sleeping on it. Provide extra pillows and don’t skimp on the linens. A thick duvet isn’t a bad idea either.
4. Provide a nightstand next to the bed. This could be a great place for a lamp for reading purposes.
5. Place a bowl of candy, magazines, books or flowers in the room to make your guests feel welcomed.
6. Hang a mirror on the wall so they have a place to freshen up.
7. A clock radio, wastebasket, iron and ironing board, tissues and a bottle of water are nice personal touches.
