Never the host who ran out of toilet paper.

Linens, paper goods, soap, coffee, and guest essentials replenished automatically from your stock by the cleaning team during every turnover. Guests never run out — and you never get the avoidable one-star review about a missing basic.

What it is

The unglamorous service that quietly protects your rating.

Running out of toilet paper, coffee, hand soap, or clean towels mid-stay is one of the most common — and most avoidable — sources of negative reviews. During every turnover, the cleaning team checks consumables against a par level set for your unit and replenishes from a stock kept on-site. When stock runs low, we reorder before it's gone.

No guest ever left a five-star review because the toilet paper was stocked. But plenty have left one-star reviews because it wasn't. Restocking is pure downside protection — and the downside is entirely avoidable.
How it works

Par levels, checked and topped up every turnover.

1

Par levels set per unit

During onboarding we set a par level for every consumable — how many toilet paper rolls, coffee pods, soap refills, and linen sets your unit should always have on hand based on its size and booking pace.

2

Checked every turnover

At each turnover the cleaning team checks every consumable against its par level as part of the standard SOP — it's on the same checklist as the photo audit.

3

Topped up from on-site stock

Anything below par is replenished immediately from a supply stock kept in the unit (a closet, a bin), so the next guest always arrives to a fully stocked space.

4

Reordered before it's gone

When the on-site stock itself runs low, we reorder and restock it — billed transparently on your monthly statement — so the cleaning team never arrives to an empty supply bin.

Value to your bottom line

Pure downside protection, handled in the background.

"Ran out" reviews

The avoidable supply complaint — no paper, no soap, no coffee — simply stops happening. One of the easiest one-star triggers, eliminated.

Reordering handled

You never get a "we're low on X" text or have to place a Costco order. Par-level tracking and reordering run in the background.

1 visit

Cleaning + restocking combined

Restocking happens during the same turnover visit as cleaning — no separate trip, no separate cost, no coordination from you.

And to your guests

Everything's there → the guest feels cared for → no mid-stay annoyance → a protected rating.

A fully stocked unit removes the single most common small frustration before it can ever sour a stay.

Everything's there

Guest reaches for toilet paper, coffee, soap, a clean towel — and it's stocked, every time, like a good hotel.

Feels cared for

In Vancouver

Why reliable supplies matter most here.

LONG-HAUL GUESTS

Jet-lagged international arrivals

Many Vancouver guests arrive off long trans-Pacific flights, late and exhausted. The last thing they should face is a unit with no coffee or no toilet paper at midnight. Reliable restocking matters most exactly when guests are least able to go buy supplies themselves.

TIGHT TURNAROUNDS

Peak-season same-day flips

In Vancouver's busy May–October stretch, same-day turnovers leave no time to notice a supply gap after the guest arrives. Checking par levels during the turnover — not after a complaint — is the only way to keep tight flips reliable.

BULK SUPPLY RUNS

Costco efficiency across the portfolio

Because we manage supplies across 40+ Vancouver properties, we buy consumables efficiently in bulk and keep your per-unit stock topped up at sensible cost — better pricing than ad-hoc corner-store runs, itemised cleanly on your statement.
