Action: Hostfully - House Manual Cards (Rules, Property & Amenity Instructions)

Module 9: The Digital House Guide

In short

House manual cards are the building blocks of a Hostfully digital guidebook. Each card answers one guest question before they need to message you, explains how to use amenities like spas or BBQs without damage, and puts your rules in writing. Organising cards into rules and policies, property information and amenity instructions makes them easier to find and to link from your guest messages.
