We have guests who manage to heavily stain towels and bed linen and no one ever says anything although we always managed to take it off. Apart from the one that they took off try to stick them with the unit or high up that's what I did as the infrared in my A/C's is weak so I have to stick them...

Thank you very much for the comments and welcome :) It became a routine coming on here and hearing all of the stories and suggestions!

I have a desktop in my bedroom / office which I usually use to do book keeping and rates, then I use an old iPad which I use to access the same desktop around the house and the Phone when I'm at work and out of the house. Everything is stored in the cloud so that I can access it from anywhere...

I still have to try to leave mine on throughout the day. Last summer we had 2 10 year old A/C s which if left on the electricity meter just would've gone mad but this year we've both new ones and I am just waiting for it to get a bit warmer so that I can leave them a whole day on as the person...

Sensibo is wonderful, I had it to switch on & off the A/C's in the room with a Zwave motion sensor and it decreased the electricity by approx 3-5 units per day! I've always set it at 23c, fans to medium and instructed guests to let me know should they still feel a bit warm but no one ever said...

You're right! It's a Nescafe (Nestle), I was reading Nespresso and ended up writing it :)

We do have a Nespresso Dolce Gusto in the kitchen which allot of guests use for a couple of nights and than that's it usually (most probably the excitement of doing coffee with a machine wears out) but I do have to show them how to use it unless they have one at home, we also have a kettle with...

I asked a similiar questions a few months ago and someone (Im sorry I've forgotten the names) suggested Roku and they couldn't have been any better! I've loaded it with a netflix account, some news apps like al jazeera, euronews, france 24 and reuters for news and film on for some live channels...

You sound just like us with the difference that we will not open on the 1st haha. We started renovating the bedrooms and building a second floor in November and planned to open on the 01st of April but we have our first guests on the 3rd and we have no doors to the en-suites that will not come...

That would be a great idea! I was thinking of timers but the ones we saw in the shops were not very good looking haha, I'll try to search for the key operated ones, thanks! I don't mind the lights in the bedroom although sometimes I do have the habit of entering the rooms a few minutes after our...

We usually do not mind any personal questions as usually guests stay at a b&b to have a personal experience but sometimes they go way personal, when this happens we usually do like everyone else on here as well and turn the questions back on them. What we sometimes like less is guests leaving...

I have never thought about that and hope that airbnb would not do that to me haha but yes you are right, albeit being an easy place to start from and it is almost free (they only take about 1-3% from hosts), one cannot expand since people tend to go on airbnb to find a cheap price and it is not...

I am not at all surprised that booking.com is the king of cancellations. We tried it out and put our rooms on it and we only kept it for about two months cause we started seeing "lock in a good price, free cancellation bla bla bla". I'm currently also working at a resort where we call our guests...

We have been using airbnb and are quite happy with it as it's very simple and reliable. You just put in the description, address, rates, bank details etc... and you're set. Guests will pay airbnb and airbnb pays you, payments come in the day after arrival, always on time (just make sure to set...

Thank you very much! I have already browsed the forum a bit!
