    Off Topic: On Julie & Julia

    The movie was wonderful! But beware, you need to go on an full stomach. We were starving by the time we left!

    Lurkers

    I'm guilty of lurking too...but I have learned a LOT from this forum. Mostly that my idealistic romantic idea of a B&B has been seriously remolded into a hard working venue that is not for the tenderhearted (or pennyless!)

    guests that request NO service???

    This is kind of off subject, but somewhat funny. While my husband and I were planning our honeymoon, we visited a prospective B&B, just to get a feel of the place to make sure it would be private. The inkeeper was showing us the rooms with her toy poodle following us all along. She then...

    My boss wants me to open up a B&B in their home-help??

    Thank you all for your advice. I knew this wouldn't be a good idea from the start, but you gave me some more info to back it up with. My boss is the kind of guy that wants to "get things done" sometimes without looking at the whole picture. The home itself would make a lovely bed and breakfast...

    My boss wants me to open up a B&B in their home-help??

    I forgot to mention that there is already a staff on hand that takes care of the housekeeping and maintenence. As for who will be in charge of running it I do have a feeling it will be more on my shoulders than my boss's. That's why I'm putting feelers out, because we're just putting this thing...

    My boss wants me to open up a B&B in their home-help??

    I'm not too new to this forum. I've been reading the posts for about a year now, but rarely respond because I don't own a bed and breakfast. However, I am very interested in them and have always dreamt of owning one. Well, that opportunity has seemed to come up. I am a private chef for a very...

    'rust' spots on towels

    You might check your towel rods or hooks (whichever one you use) I had a problem with that a while ago and discovered rust on our hooks. It was just a tiny little spot, but enough to be noticeable on white towels~

    Evening Turn Down Service

    "I do not turn-down and unless requested, I do not enter the room during the visit. I tell my guests that I look at it as this is their home while they are here, and I would not enter their home without permission. If they need maid service, please tell me. Most tell me everything is fine. Many...

    Breakfast on your website?

    You could probably put a disclaimer on the bottom stating that the meals are subject to change per "chef's choice", but if someone has dietary restrictions, they are more than welcome to ask for something different. What kind of dietary alterarions do people request? Being allergic to a specific...

    Complaints from guests about the noise

    Aspiring Innkeeper here again...I don't know if this has already been a topic, but I'm just curious as to how much of your daily lives affect the guests while they are in their rooms. Do they just deal with background noise because of the fact that they are sharing a house with others, or do you...

    Aspiring Innkeeper needing some advice

    Our new home will be just down the hill-far enough away for privacy, but close enough to walk in case I am needed. The bed and breakfast would have only two suites, but they will have a full-size kitchen and bathroom. My plan for breakfast is to make a basket of breakfast breads and deliver it...

    Aspiring Innkeeper needing some advice

    Hello, I am planning on opening a bed and breakfast within the next few years and was wanting some friendly advice. We (my husband and I) currently own a 1-bedroom duplex. We live in one half and rent out the other. A well-insulated garage is placed in the middle to provide a sound barrier. It...
