Hi All, Hi Bhumika,

at the moment its quit difficult to have guest and an booked apartment. But generally to host in Uganda is really lovely

[Bhumika]

Thank you for sharing @Anna-Miriam0 ! What do you think could be the reasons for low bookings? Is it a slow booking season in Uganda currently?

[Anna-Miriam0]

Yes I think its the season right now in Uganda.

I see @Anna-Miriam0 , how are you dealing with it? Have you explored offering discounts or custom promotions to attract guests? 

On a side note, I noticed your beautiful listing photos and was wondering if you designed the interior set up yourself? 😍

[Anna-Miriam0]

Yes we offering discounts for stays like 7 days etc. And I think even for the nice apartment we have a really low rate. 
Thanks for your compliment, yes I designed it on my own. 

[Bhumika]

That's wonderful @Anna-Miriam0 ! 

What things do you usually keep in mind while designing your listing? Do you prioritize aesthetics or prefer a minimal decoration? 

What do you think attracts guests the most in Uganda?

Looking forward to hear your designing tips and ideas! 😍

[Anna-Miriam0]

Dear @Bhumika ,

for the design we used pictures from a painter in Uganda. For me the design should be simple but different from home. That someone could feel during his stay on a different place. I think the most visitors in Uganda like the nature, the animals and the behavior from the uganda’s. They are friendly, open minded.
