    I LOVE Bank Mergers!

    Well, my bank just bought the Bank of the West (which I assume will eventually become branches of BMO Harris). Which incidentally already has branches in KS and MO. And with Bank of the West, will increase the number of branches One of our banks is already in the Top 10 in the US. And one is...

    I LOVE Bank Mergers!

    I'd be waiting forever for that to happen around here. My bank was established in 1817. And the big banks around here were all established in the late 19th century.

    Only important to me … are minimoos still a good thing?

    A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, I had the same problem with my roommates in an apartment. We were 6 in the apartment and I didn't care if they used it, as long as they told me... because I kept a running total in my head of what I had at home... being a student on a budget means you...

    Just Set 2022 Rates - A Few Thoughts

    When we started, we didn't have a minimum. We found out... we were the "splurge" for the cheap travellers... so we went to 2 nights and increased our prices. Before Covid... Since we have open booking, we sometimes end up with single nights. I actually put the rate up and put them on X and BK...

    Guest Vaccination Requirement

    We aren't legally allowed to serve at the moment. In this respect, we are required to follow the restaurant regulations. No restaurant seating is allowed at the moment, at all.

    Guest Vaccination Requirement

    Well, new regulations... restaurants are only take-out and delivery, which means I can't serve. If we have just one family, we can put it on the table, but if there are more, they have to take it to their room. We let guests use the dining room to eat, but it's one family at a time.

    Just Set 2022 Rates - A Few Thoughts

    I put my rates up $10 a night across all the rates, to cover increases in food and that. But we still have a room and a half that are closed. Been thinking of changing things so that we sell one instead of king as king and queen with up to 4 people always, with private detached bath. Want to...

    Guest Vaccination Requirement

    We are required by law to ask for vaccination certificates if the guests want to eat breakfast in the common dining room. If they don't want to provide it, breakfast is in a meal prep container for them to take to their room. The local version simply says "Adequately vaccinated" but includes...

    Vaccinated Guest or Non-Vaccinated Guests?

    In my jurisdiction, I am NOT allowed to ask vaccination status, nor do I want to. The government mandates wearing a mask in public spaces and therefore they must be worn in the house, outside of the guest rooms. We were told by the hotel association to not argue with people, just remind them...

    Hello! Who wants to open up a Bed & Breakfast with me?

    Since I can just go out to the store and buy it, I don't see the point of having a specific B&B for it.

    Why would you do this and why would you fail to mention it?

    If I could shoot all my visitors who open a window in the dead of winter, I would only end up with domestic visitors leaving here, alive.

    Free rooms - discuss.

    Thanks. But if you can provide a tax receipt, I'll consider a donation, if that's a charity that I think is worthy. But no donation certificates, ever. The message is muddled. The advertising is muddled. The people don't really want to be here. I don't really want them either. I want guests who...

    Free rooms - discuss.

    I don't do free nights. We look at it this way, when a travel writer/blogger asks for a night... The law requires them to disclose that they are getting the night for free, as it is seen as a payment. So, if they disclose, the review is tainted. If they don't disclose, they are dishonest and...

    Took me long enough to figure this one out

    Our first year, we allowed single nights... never again. Too much work. After that, we opened up single nights only between other reservations. Those nights, became everyone's "splurge" night. So, we put up the price of a single night, still booked, more cash in the pocket. This year with...

    Flannel sheets?

    The person around here who hates flannel is ME! And I hate the look of the piling on the sheets. Soft microfibre in winter. Soft and very warm.

    Hello from me

    Hi! Does she at least pay a bonus back for those who get finished faster?

    This year's guests have left more tips than ever.

    But they have actually changed their own sheets?
