    Reservation Key Email Templates

    We just became RK clients yesterday! Woo-hoo! John has been excellent in helping get us set up. Where is the setting that allows you to see when/if guests open emails? I haven't found that function yet, but agree that this is a great feature.

    New reservation system needed

    Hi, everyone: We are in a similar quandry re: new reservation system. I am not sure the new b ed and br eak fast . com service is right for us, and I'm waiting on some answers from them; 1) Since we currently use Web er vations, (owned by them) does that mean that all of our guests who book...

    I say children and babies are people too.

    As unpopular as it may be, we have a restriction on children as guests: "children 10 and over welcomed with well-behaved parents." As a restored Queen Anne Victorian, our b and b is not child-proof and we've learned some valuable lessons over the years. Don't get me wrong - we love children (6...

    Tesla Destination Charging

    Yes - we've been communicating back and forth with Ben. We think we will stick with one charger. Based on the map, we would be the only charging station halfway between two major metropolitan areas, 4 miles off an interstate. Still waiting on our electrician for an estimate to send in.

    Tesla Destination Charging

    We have an electrician coming out to give us the estimate / quote. I wonder: since Tesla is reimbursing up to two Tesla chargers (plus the universal) should we go ahead and get two of the high-powered ones? Or, does it depend on the power that's available at the location? Curious how many...

    Tesla Destination Charging

    We are excited as well! After we looked on Tesla's map, I decided to go ahead and fill out the online form. Ben replied to our inquiry fairly quickly, and now we are contacting our electrician to get an estimate. Will update as it goes forward.

    New Credit Card Machine

    Northwest Indiana Bed & Breakfast for Sale

    Thanks! It's remarkable that the woodwork was never painted (especially white, in this neck of the woods). We get compliments all the time on the woodwork. One couple who stayed with us (and were professional appraisers) said that if we ever got hard-up for money, the woodwork alone would...

    Financial disclosure?

    Thanks for all of the good advice. We're proceeding with the gathering of documents, having our attorney prepare the non-disclosure and non-compete clause, etc. I added the "I" missing from "Financial" - typing too quickly.

    Financial disclosure?

    Good morning, all: We have our inn for sale, and have a very interested buyer who has asked to see some financial information. Before we go to our attorney and our accountant, I thought I might pose the question to the collective wisdom of the group. What, and when do you provide? After...

    Why being nice is a pain

    It appears to be an epidemic! Yesterday guests arrived 2+ hours early, said they didn't know we were on "that other time zone"(?!). DW hadn't yet prepared their fresh fruit add-on, since we like to have that as fresh as possible. I was cutting the grass and told them I would be done in an...

    Why people don't stay in BnBs

    All: We had guests this past week who gave some insight about the wide range of service/quality that BnBs offer across the country. The guests were traveling back to the Midwest from the East Coast, and had stayed in two bed and breakfasts prior to staying with us. We asked if they always stay...
