Essential items for holiday homes

From the moment they step through the door your bookings become guests, and their experiences determine whether they ever come back.

Oo-er kathy...that would be telling :lol: :wink:

Actually - we use them :shock: but then we're not on holiday :lol:
I just couldn't contemplate a guest coming in to a used toilet roll...even if it had a pointy bit...so its always new 'uns at can Alegre :lol:

BTW I hav a top cleaning tip using loo rolls which I'll post when I've a min.

Weird Mousie (who's OH must feel the same...cos when we stayed at the place in Barca he said...good grief - they haven't left a new loo roll...now thats not nice for guests :lol: )

I've been thinking about the half used loo roll(I know I've a sad life!). Mousie you are in fact quite right!! Why would anyone want to use a loo roll when someone's fingers - unwashed- have been on it, after, well after using the toilet. You are right its not decent!! :oops:

Now I have another strange habit to add to the list - like never sleeping on strange pillows - now I will inspecting loo rolls for newness :oops:
I find television very educational. Every time someone switches it on I go into another room and read a good book.

fibi - I can feel a 'new loo roll appreciation society' being developed as I type :lol: :lol:

Mention it to your next 'hotel inspector' bet they'll pick up on it & start a revolution :lol:

BTW Big Sis...we had perfumed loo rolls here briefly (jasmine I think ... & naturally they were white) didn't catch on tho' for some reason. :cry:

I know what you mean, but when you're out and obliged to use a public loo, what then?

(No holds barred on this forum, it would seem!)

We do leave a new roll per loo as well as the half-used one, but keeping the used one would amount to 4 per changeover - that's hell of a lot of half-used rolls per season! :shock:

No one's complained yet.......... :roll:

So come on Mousie, what do you do with them all??

I think its more the impression I want guests to have. you know - that I care about details :roll:
Saving trees! Hurray for Mousie! Are they all pink, Mouse?
Yip - I'm a re-cycling type-o-mouse...and the guests do to. In fact thats an interesting one - they do seem very concerned about re-cycling (praps that needds another thread)

Oh GG - Pink!?!? I wish...it's white all the way in Ibizaworld unfortunately (these ibicencos know nothing :roll: ).

BTW - I also think quality is also an issue for loo rolls. Can't stand cheap thin paper...now that can really shpw the owner up as a cheapskate IMO :lol:
We were very impressed with french loo roll on our recent tip!

I keep the existing roll as long as there is over half left - I fold over the end of the roll in triangles and like Kathy, have never had any complaints.

I take the half used ones and put them in our downstairs loo - the one I call our garden toilet that only we use. So I leave a new on eon the roll and one per person plus one for good luck in a basket. I am a bit fusy about which way the loo roll is on the dispenser - I like my paper fall at the front!!! :D
