Gasly or Gorgeous Guest Rooms

When I consult on homes it amazes me how often guest rooms are neglected.  Folks will clean like they were prepping for surgery, blow the bank on groceries and cook an exotic meal to impress company.

Yet lumpy beds with worn comforters prevail.  The lack of amenities is crazy wrong!  No dual lamps on bedside tables, no clocks, plugs covered so guests can't charge their phones, no extra blankets, pillows, towels.  Then their are the throw-me-down pillows from the master or college.  I could wax poetic for many paragraphs....  Why are guests rooms always the last rooms to get attention?

Wouldn't you rather stay here?

I also like to leave current magazines, a popular books, candy dish with chocolates, a bud vase with a pretty bloom, and a small basket with little shampoos, conditioners, shower cap, asprin and other personal items my guests might have forgotten.
