Nothing to do with not taking credit cards at all, just not taking certain ones. ie- You don't take AmEx, or you don't take Discover.
I've had guests who reserved with card type A walk in the door with card type B at which point I tell them I don't take card type B and they get all huffy. OR, girlfriend X books room and girlfriend Z has the card I don't take so they stand there and whine about how are they going to work this out if they want to split the bill? (OK, I can solve that problem for them, just wondering if guests are SO attached to ONE card that they don't have any other card at all?)
Or, guest wants to reserve and you say you don't take the card they have. I could always take a check in advance.
So, basic question is, ever lose a booking because you don't take the card they want to use?
