Another thread and comment by Mortie made me think of this and I am curious.
If you are the guest at a B&B, what are the things (that need attention) that you would mention to the owner/host/innkeeper? (Some times it is not as easy as that, if they know we are an innkeeper perhaps easier or perhaps harder depending on the situation and attitude of the hosts)
I know it is easy to say what we think we would mention, but when I have found deificiencies I never mention them to the hosts - unless it is something I think needs urgent attention.
Would it be something that make your stay more comfortable? Something that would not offend them so you bring it up in passing, or something you think they may not be aware of?
I ask, as innkeepers you know we are not in the rooms for most of their stay, which is another reason the freshening is important. If you went into a room and it was 100 degrees or 20 degrees or something spilled or broken, then we know we have a problem, or a stopped up toilet (this is one thing a guest rarely will mention out of embarrassment).
What is important to mention or not mention (in your opinion). (You can think back to your a couple stays at B&B's and recall what you thought about mentioning but didn't etc).
As the innkeeper on a few instances when an innmate mentioned something I really did appreciate it. I knew it was done for the right reason, to help out.
Please feel free to share your thoughts.
