    Duvet vs blanket and other stuff from vacation

    I consider what the industry calls a "bath towel" to be a hair towel. The towels in the shared bath are regular size bath sheets - the Gillum has the largest ones.

    What would you do? Who right?

    Did you check your website rate today BEFORE giving the refund? Could they have done a screenshot of a screenshot? It sounds as if they went to a lot of trouble to **** you out of $40. I think I would have said, prices change in every industry. Gas & grocery prices change almost daily. This is...

    Guests Are Changing...

    So sad that you are having this happen. The world is upside down. After being locked up for so long, people seem to have forgotten how polite society functions.

    Should I Sell A Service?

    I have had a regular who loved to sit on the porch with breakfast. I was happy to set it up for her - BUT she was usually here during the week and the ONLY guest each time. The morning sun floods my front porch and I cannot imagine sitting there with the sun in my eyes. Another aspoct id having...

    B & Bs For Vets 2022

    We are now asking for participants in the 2022 B & Bs for Vets. Sadly 2021 did not have enough participation to get ANY (OK, not much) notice. What will I get out of this? Free publicity in local papers, in Social Media, and publicity/Social Media generated by ALP (IF we get enough...

    Unhappy Guests Want Discount

    He was a very funny man. One of the TRULY funny comedians that did not have to refer to "blue" subjects or swearing to be funny.

    What ARE the Chances?

    I have all rooms booked tonight. The gentleman from London requested to reserve the charge point tonight. Imagine my surprise when the other couple arriving tonight asked asked me what kind of charger I had. I could have sworn it was the British couple. Told her they could hook up until the...

    Pleasing the Irish

    We had no running water. Hauled it in 5, 8, and 10 gallon milk cans. For drinking, we had an aluminum bucket of water on a stool next to the sink with a ladle in it. You filled the ladle, drank, and put the ;ladle back in the bucket. No one thought anything about that in the 1950s. (And we were...

    Pleasing the Irish

    We only have one source of water here. Water flows from the filtration plant into town and then through water lines to the meter and into the house. ALL water comes in from that water line. I also have a water line that goes to a connection for my hose to water my plants, wash the car, erc. Same...

    Pleasing the Irish

    From things my UK forum-mates have written, many have a water reservoir on the roof that I guess rain water drains into. This is a water source for the bathrooms I think. Mort, I think I would relate this water story to the Irish innkeepers as a way of asking. You were confused by it and...

    It was mostly good. And I agree, people will wonder what planet she was from to not know all our water is potable. And I have news doe her - for what you provide, your rates are not excessive! She even mentioned how awesome the bathroom is. If tea is the only thing she could complain about, '...
