Hosting while ill

I guess it was bound to happen - I got sick as a dog during a fully booked month.  It's taken 2 weeks to recover, a few days of missed work but not one day of cancelled reservations.

How did I do it?  First, I asked guests to follow a self-checkout procedure.  Then I gave myself extra time to clean and took breaks as needed. Fortunately, no one stayed past checkout time or I would have had a tough time making the check-in deadline.  Then, to reduce the chances of infecting guests, I left the (sanitized) keys in a lockbox for them.  The result is that I didn't get to meet my guest for 2 weeks but, hopefully, I didn't pass anything on to them either.

Thank goodness the apartment is private and not shared.  What in the heck do you do when you host guests in shared living space and you get sick?

At my worst point I had a true friend volunteer to come over and help me with the cleaning.  Don't know how I could have done it without her.
