got the full amount of inconvenience from a no show this weekend.
It was a couple that had cancelled Valentine's Day because of the snow. We were nice enough to carry the deposit to any weekend of their choosing. They chose Feb. 28.
Since we are in the off season, we don't have food stocked. So we went shopping just for them. Fresh fruit, yogurt, flowers.
We were out doing errands enjoying a day with no snow fall, but had to rush home for a 3 PM check in time. (We didn't know when they were coming.)
Baked a nice banana bread to be ready for morning.
We couldn't enjoy a quiet hot tub because we were waiting for a check in.
We heated the room. Oil heat and electric fireplace. Lights on. Living room gas fireplace on.
We called. Got VM. Assumed (hoped) that meant they were on the road.
At 9:30 PM, we called again to tell them the key is in an envelope.
We left the heat on and the door unlocked. All outside and common room lights on.
No show.
The first time DH agreed that he should keep the money. Hope it covers the cost of heat!
(P.S. Still haven't heard from them even though they have two voice mails from us.)
