    How much money can you make owning a bed and breakfast business?

    Ha! Good point, Camberley!

    What happens...

    Thinking of you. So sorry. I hope you can find some private time to deal with your sadness. As Swirt said, it's hard to grieve as an innkeeper. Especially if you'd like to keep the details to yourself a bit. I hope knowing this community of folks-you-know and folks-you-don't-know is...

    A new blog post for all those who think, "Check-in time??? What? Why????"

    Absolutely! Shower = Doorbell.

    The Seven Year Report

    Wow....I've been away from the forum for a week or so and I just read this. During a quick dinner, aloud to DH. We were shocked at how much you seemed to be talking straight to us (about exercise and eating right, especially!) and how much you seemed to be talking about OUR lives and OUR inn...

    Changes to Google Places

    I got this exact same email, and of course I quickly went to my google places account to see what was wrong that they were changing. But everything they said they were changing to was EXACTLY what it already says. So I'm very confused, and a little nbit annoyed that they wasted my time making...

    What irritates you?

    I had the loveliest booking a couple of days ago which makes up for the nonsense I've been writing about in a PITA thread. This was a man in his late 70's who was brought to town to speak at an important function. His 93 year old sister came along. When the organization booked, I made sure...

    It's finally happened

    That's what I feared, too, seashanty. Along with Dad showing up and going postal because we cancelled them. But here's what happened. I wasn't home this morning when Dad called because I had to take my elderly mom to the doctor. (Thank goodness!) DH took the call, and Dad was not happy, but...

    It's finally happened

    I've been reading this site for a couple of years, and contributing a bit for what, 18 months? Secretly I sometimes wonder where some of you FIND the extra-special people who you seem to attract. Okay, so you've finally sent some toward me. I got an online reservation made late last evening...

    What irritates you?

    OMG, you're singing my tune. Or even if they're NOT a local number....have they really never heard of timezones?

    What irritates you?

    Just guessing, Camberley----Is "parking" your big annoyance issue?

    iNeedHelp

    Oh, thank you for this post. I was just looking at some yesterday, too, and was planning to ask pretty much the same question, because iNeed Help too! Im interested in sound quality of the speakers, as well as (and this is HUGELY important) I need alarm clocks that are absolutely idiot-proof...

    Cancellation policy- at least they're honest

    Makes sense.

    DON"T FLUSH!!a

    Unbelievable. Inexusable. But since it's true, I wonder whether it might help to have some small, opaque plastic bags under the sink along with a note asking folks to wrap anything other than toilet paper that they might be tempted to flush down the toilet, along with a suggestion of where they...

    Cancellation policy- at least they're honest

    Just curious why you're waiting til next year? Why not just start now? (Not criticizing...just curious)

    Single guests

    I liked the picture of the Vegemite. We have an Aussie here now (repeat business guest) who this trip brought us not only a bottle of Oz wine (how nice, just for us!) but also a queeze contanier of Vegemite. He doesn't want us to open it for him, but to keep it so that we can WOW future Aussie...

    Single guests

    Yes! Me too. Hated serving 5 folks breakfast at 7, but love the fact that the FIVE ROOMS (love those single biz travelers!) are OUT of the house by 7:45.

    Single guests

    Interesting....I'm glad you said this. Gives me something to think about. Since we have open seating here and a number of tables, our guests usually don't sit with other guests. Usually my tables are set for two unless I know it's a party of 3 or 4 or 5 or whatever, and then I accommodate...

    WHY do they do this?

    Yep---today, phone call at 10:50 to ask me to remind them when check-in is. I say begins at 3, but let me see what I have noted for you. She says Oh, we're here. (BTW, their reservation noted 4pm). I say, well enjoy the town, and I'll be ready for you at 3pm. They were ringing the bell at...
