    Patience is wearing thin but I didn’t say what I wanted to say, so, so far, so good

    Why not? Look at all the work you had to do. You should charge extra.

    Regarding your comments and feedback. In Barbados electricity is very expensive. With ac, fans and other devices on etc and running all day and night my bill is around $2000/month, my stove is electric and we keep front lights on for the guests. I went to our power company and they said things...

    I am in the tropics so my guests tend to stay between 7-10 days. This is such a learning curve for me so thank you for all your responses.

    Hello thanks for the comment. I like the idea of asking their preference in servicing the room.

    I know I said rules but I corrected myself it’s more of a welcome book with rules interspersed and all places have rules. Ok I didn’t know you weren’t to move clothes, so if theirs are clothes on floor and bed, you’re saying don’t clean the room? :( Question::how often do you change linens...

    Hello everyone, Two things... what is your check in procedure when your guests arrive? I don’t have an official reception area. Also have a rules book I give everyone when they arrive.

    Jcam, Thank you for your feedback. Kitchen is just an open area and no lock on the door. Lol Jacam that’s exactly what I said and they developed an attitude soon after and said they would be finding somewhere else to stay. :(

    Morticia & Gillumhouse, thank you so very much for your kind response. It is much appreciated. I live in Barbados and there are only 3 B & Bs here, one has 3 rooms, I have 6 and the other has 10 plus acres of land so they have privacy and seclusion. My hall area is like a U so not much space...

    Soo I told my guests due to insurance reasons they could not use my kitchen or store stuff in my fridge and they have decided to leave :( so that's that but I feel good about it. (they were my second "official" guests). In from Italy. Can I have a survey of how many innkeepers/B&B owners...

    They are there strictly as a B&B, it is only self catering when a group, usually 10`12 book the entire house. When rooms are rented, it is as a Bed & Breakfast where I cook breakfast. That is listed clearly on my page

    Oh no you misunderstood, my apologies for not being clear. I do cook breakfast, only me but I had a couple from Italy who started cooking in the evenings and being in my kitchen and was storing groceries in the fridge etc. How do I deal with something like this without being rude? Thanks

    Hello all, I am a new B&B owner in Barbados. I have 6 rooms and have the house listed as a self catering villa and as a Bed & Breakfast. Wanted to know how you guys deal with the kitchen/cooking if all rooms are rented as a B&B. Obviously you can't have lots of people in the kitchen at once...
