If you plan to shop for new mattresses for your motel, you may find the varieties and price ranges quite overwhelming. However, a good rule of thumb is to buy mattresses that clients find supportive and comfortable. Therefore, besides taking a mattress salesperson's word, it is advisable to try sleeping on different mattresses. For example, you should spend a few minutes on each mattress, trying different sleeping positions. Most importantly, your preferred mattress should be gentle on your back, stomach, and sides. After testing, you can then choose your preferred brand and buy in bulk. Here are beginner tips for buying hospitality mattresses for a motel.
Return Policy — Make sure that you choose a vendor who offers a full refund or replacement in case you find faults with mattresses purchased. In addition, find out the return period because it differs from one seller to another. A longer return period is better because it gives more time to identify issues with mattresses before you decide whether to return them or not. Although some sellers may offer free pickups, many expect customers to pay for the service. Therefore, find out more about the return policy of a vendor before buying mattresses.
Bargaining — Once you have decided the brand of mattress you want for your motel, you should try to negotiate lower prices, considering that you will be buying several mattresses at once. Therefore, choose a store that offers room for price negotiation. Also, while it might be difficult to negotiate when purchasing online, it is advisable to buy during sales periods when vendors reduce prices to clear their stock.
Inspection During Delivery — When mattresses are transported to your motel, you may incur damages, such as stains and scratches. Therefore, an examination is critical before accepting mattresses on delivery. Notably, you have the right to refuse delivery if mattresses are not in the original condition. It is a seller's responsibility to ensure that mattresses arrive in perfect condition without wear and tear. If you detect any issues with your delivery, you should call a vendor immediately for a replacement.
Firmness Level — Since clients' sleeping preferences differ, you should choose mattresses with different firmness levels, namely plush, medium and firm. If you want a firmness level that meets the sleeping needs of most clients, then medium firmness is the safest bet. The mattress should offer enhanced comfort, even for guests with underlying back and spinal issues.
