    Search Engine Ad saying No Availability - when they know nothing

    I just checked your place via Goo gle. I got the "Check Website" message. At least they updated the message. I went to your site and noticed a minor error. The pictures of your rooms stated Queen, Queen and Full but the words underneath state King, King and Queen. Might want to update that...

    Liquor License

    Understood. And I have all the info you mentioned. I have five quotes from reputable insurance firms and the prices are too far part to get a reasonable idea. They are all in ballpark without alcohol. The only reason we are looking at is that the prior owner had it.

    ADR Calc

    Thank you that explanation. Because this property is a foreclosed property, no real data is available prior to the bank taking it back. They did higher a Hotel Management service to come in and keep it active so it would sell better. We are being directed by our SBA and SCORE Reps to use the...

    Your mother wears army boots

    I am a heavy heal striker when I walk. I can walk in fluffy bunny slippers on grass and you can hear my coming a mile away. And while my mother did not wear Army Boots, my wife proudly did for 30 years.

    Financial Review

    Thank bank has taken care of the property. They hired a management firm to clean up the place and keep it going. Other than that the bank is only trying to sell it. Property is good. Built in 2008, all high quality stuff. It was just that the President of the bank and the owners were in cahoots...

    Occupany Rate Calculations

    Hmm...........we got the same number. I hate math. We are planning on being closed a few nights and I wanted to use round numbers as an example. Booked and sold are two different things since the booking can be cancelled under the Cancellation Policies.

    Occupany Rate Calculations

    My wife and I are still working on finding the right place for us. A place has recently come up on the market that might work. Since I have not been focused on the B&B business, I need to refresh my mind on a question or two. Occupancy Rate = Total Nights Available * Number of rooms / Nights...

    Breakfast Pudding Recipe

    The menu at the B&B clearly stated Cream of Wheat & Almond Paste. My wife enjoyed it. I am waiting to hear back from the Chef to see if she will share that recipe. I want to added it to our Christmas Breakfast menu.
