How do you control or treat odors between STR guests for quick turnovers?

I am about to start an Air BnB and am concerned about smells between guests, especially if they smoke or bring pets w/them. I'm considering getting an air purifier or ozone generator that can quickly clean the air, especially w/Covid and cleanliness concerns. One product I was looking at is an Afloia Air Purifier for Home and Large Rooms Up to 1075 sqft w/Smart APP & Voice Control h13 HEPA Air Purifiers. If anyone can share their experiences, I'd really appreciate it as this is new territory for me.


Thanks in advance!

Yeah...just don't allow smoking anywhere on the premises.

We have never had an issue with smells between guests. We do have some small sachets here and there hidden that absorb smells. I replace them a couple of times a year. They are cheap and provide a light, breezy, fragrance throughout the house.

Otherwise we just clean, clean, clean and the house smells great! And we allow dogs.
