That would make sense actually if I were selling a box of cheerios or laundry detergent. When doing retreats that range from $1,500 to $3,500 and book a dozen or so of these events in a year. I guess I will continue to ignore the less than stellar advice one receives on here from the "click"...

I'm actually going back to lurking on here. I've never encountered so many negative people in my entire life. goodluck! and remember WWJD

Thanks for all the input I honestly don't like the Animoto stuff. They are too scrap book like. I do some interior work for clients on the side so the video is dual purpose and the multiple shots reflect how I put a room together from more than one angle. From what I can tell we serve two...

Thnx will fix asap!

Goodbye!

Its definitely a liability and more important its your home. Best thing I ever did was install the Schlage door locks that are a keypad. I change the code often and the best part within five seconds of a guest punching in the code the door re-locks. These locks have been great! We don't find...

If there is going to be a situation or damages from a guest, nine out of ten times it is from a phone reservation. They are the worse! A worse scenario is a phone reservation and demands to pay in cash, usually I refuse these people entrance. No CC on file no bed for you!

Going Tuesday morning to vote! I've been MIA on here....We had four retreats to do in the last two weeks but made sure the house is empty for election night so I can stay up all night and watch the numbers come in.

She have to run over me a good three times to kill me...I'm tough!

We offer breakfast buffet style between 8am and 10am . We also have three tables set for breakfast, they pick up the plate help themselves and people in general are clickish. Birds of feather flock together law. I even have them trained to fill there own coffee from the master pot. There is...

I'm loving that wardrobe in your Blue Ridge room.....!

Penelope I do have one regret if I could redo my last seven years I would not go after your average Joe B&B guest for business. I point blank would have catered to these retreat groups. For me they basically are what keeps the doors open and the bills paid. I cater to several of these groups now...

We are at the top end for pricing in our area and all the other B&B's usually reset to our prices. In these last few years we froze our pricing to fit the economy we tightened our belts like everyone else. I can't wait to raise the prices again and plan on it after the elections in the new...

Et tu, Madeleine! I totally need a ghost writer to do a book, I'm so dyslexic I worry about everything I write and try to check it thrice. I am quite humorous though in my own defense. I also am filled with the knowledge of ten men. I will try harder! honest!!!

LOL I'll try harder! with the paragraphs. I totally put a camera out onto the street and then this last year because of towel, pillow, and yes even some blankets I put a camera in the front hall that monitors all the homes cross roads. I felt bad at first about doing it and would even turn it...

Last night the home was 72 plus degrees on all three floors and had a request for extra heat. Sooooo of course I gave them a space heater and guess what, two hours later they requested another one. Two space heaters and 72 degrees. the crazies are out! I don't cook breakfast I pull a "Newhart"...

If I took it in it be a couple hundred dollars and probably out of the room for 1-2 months or I can fix it myself for probably five dollars. I used the same rug to fix the roller coaster wood floor after guest tilted a ac into the room. Believe it or not if you put a rug of this size and...

I like your thinking Eric and its where I'm leaning on going to.....I said recently to my partner while we make money like a business this is clearly and still our home. Some B&B's are strictly profit making or as someone said Newhart Inns. For me this is my home and my memories and I really...

This is my friend B&B policy page which the City of Dubuque owns the B&B Its basically the way I'm changing mine too and I be curious what the rest of the people on here think. Its very heavy handed to cancelations but I love it. For damages however I think I want a hourly fee also...
