I have considered joining you cat ladies. Yesterday I named it, since it started meowing at the door to the innkeeper's quarters and greets me purring every time I walk out ...which is ok with me as long as it stays away from the front door.

It sounds like a really great place to visit with so much variety. And I am thankful that its not fighting cats, that would be so much worse.

What is making this stupid cat meow very loudly tonight right outside one of our guests door? Its really cute and I would love to take it inside and love it, but I can't, so instead I am running out into the night every 20 minutes chasing after in with a spray bottle...because it comes back...

Then it sounds like a good thing, the odds are in my favor :) It looks like a lovely place, and it has impressive reviews.

Thank you! That looks like an amazing internship opprotunity. I just called them and made a fool of myself not being able to figure out the time differencen ;) but I'm going to call again and talk to the owner tomorrow.

Of course, thank you for your interest. Exactly what you just said, work for free, learn the ropes of innkeeping, secure a real job, in that order. At least that's my plan. I am living in Germany until Mid-July, when I back in the states I want to start working in innkeeping/hospitality. Since I...

Haha. Even though the longer I'm on here reading and collecting little wisdomes, the more I want to be your intern, I can see why you don't need one. :)

Thank you for pointing that out EmptyNest! :-)

I'm a couple of notches below novice here, but the only reasons I can think that that room is last to be booked is with the first impression, the display picture is different, which could distinguish the room from the others, possibly in a negativery way. Also I would prefer he darker colored...

The second drain see too small. Like it would clog up immediately with toilet paper and other niceties floating around in the bowl.

Thank you, I loved reading that! How does your breakfast hamper work? What do you have in it?

Im hoping to get a few long stories from this :-) Especially from those whose inn was not already established. How long before opening did you start marketing? After you had your Target Market picked out, what did you do to reach them and convince them to come before you had even opened? How did...
