Hi , I have the second bedroom door locked. I also have a single in the main bedroom with the queen. I have just a coverlet on there and no actual bedding. A few cushions. I also have a security camera in the driveway. If more than the number of guests booked arrive they need permission from us to enter the property. I have this in my terms and conditions which are sent as soon as the booking is made and paid for. Like a back up plan in case they haven't read my rules on their booking form. So far so good. I only leave one towel per guest also. They can ask for more if a longer stay is happening.
Thanks all. It definitely was all ready but I haven't yet installed the power switches that made sense. The electrician is coming next Monday so I did some fancy lighting and which worked out beautifully. The guests left this morning and said it was all perfect. Sensor lights are amazing
I'd like to know too. The other day I got a website booking and noticed that my BDC hadn't closed/blocked the dates so I did it manually . Couldn't afford to take a chance.
Hi, personally I'm a bit old school. I get a booking and go into every platform I'm on an manually block the dates, send off my welcome letter etc and takes about 10 mins.
The other thing to note is if a guest just leaves a score only. You can't leave a comment on that either. For example. You cannot respond if they leave a bad location rating. I had a guest who gave me 5/10 for that. Why? Because he put in the wrong address in his GPS sending him all over the place! Gah! Not my fault especially when I make it very clear to contact me if having troubles. Sigh
Wondering if there is a new thread about guests reviews and leaving anonymous ones please. I just received another 2 days ago and pretty sure it got a booking cancelled. TIA
Thanks Leandri , that's a great suggestion. I'll give that a go. :)
