Hostesses/Gentlemen historical state

As a host or hostess, you make sure the State is ready to receive guests. This includes ensuring that all curtains (inside) and shutters (outside) are open, the lights in the rooms are on and everything looks tidy. Guests can walk around independently or the hostess/host can arrange for a guided tour. If guests come with questions, the hostess/host are there to answer them.
