The services each landlord needs depend on their own circumstances.

The punctual services are suitable for specific moments in which you can not be responsible for delivering some keys in a few days especially complicated for you or you prefer that someone is responsible for cleaning after a stay a little longer than normal, etc.

If you want Serve B & B to take care of the basic activities of the holiday rental (promote your accommodation in the networks, deliver it and pick it up and clean it between deliveries) you should hire the Occupation Management. Also, if you need it, you can add any timely service that you consider appropriate.
