It could be helpful for numerous reasons, whether to make the Guest aware of what will be provided at the property or to protect the Host in case anything goes missing. House Rules. Another attachment you should include and reference is a list of house rules. While it may be tedious to include separate clauses dealing with every detail (e.g. emptying the dishwasher before check out) it will be helpful to provide a separate list of rules to make sure the property is returned in good condition.
