Cleaning is one of the most critical aspects of accommodation hosting — a large portion of guest reviews depends on it.
Main options:
- Private cleaner: the most common solution. Current market rate in Budapest is about 5,000–7,000 HUF/hour, a standard turnover clean (40–60 m²) takes 2–3 hours.
- Cleaning company: more expensive but more reliable, not dependent on one person. Most companies provide invoices.
- Property management company: professional managers (like GuestGuru) handle cleaning coordination including quality control.
Tips:
- Provide cleaning supplies, mop, vacuum — do not expect the cleaner to bring their own.
- Create a checklist for the cleaner: where to find things and what to check.
- Deep cleaning (windows, kitchen degreasing, grout) should be done every 3–6 months.
