🎂 Making First Experiences Unforgettable — A Small Gesture! 🎈

[Paras45]

Hey everyone,

just wanted to share something i did willing no peer pressure lol that happened recently at my little place in Rishikesh — Shankar Bhawan Stay 🏡

A guest messaged me saying she was coming with her husband to celebrate his birthday — and not just that, it would be his first ever Airbnb experience- and fist time rishikesh- a-lot of lot first. (And the crazy part... he's a hotelier himself!) 😅
No pressure right?

I instantly felt like this stay needed to be extra special, no questions asked, but i did offer to cancel as i was not in a position to provide for early checkin and didn't wanna ruin their first experience, also lately i had problem posting because of a glitch.

So, without them asking, I setup a little surprise straight from the heart  &&&& overthinking.

Would love to hear if you guys do little surprises too? Not gonna lie, running a new place solo isn’t always easy! Always looking for more inspo ✨

Well done!

I like to have the country of origin flag on the table throughout their stay..

Regards,

Graham

Hello @Paras45 👋

This is so lovely! I thought the 'Happy Birthday' balloons were cushions at first 😅 The little cake cover is adorable. I can't quite see what you wrote on the note though.. what does it say? 

I know you've had some troubles posting here recently, are you still facing this issue or is everything resolved? 

Looking forward to hearing from you.  😊

[Paras45]

yes, i still had the same issue that's why i have been not able to reply or post for a quite some time now. Testing it again, i did contact the Airbnb support for this tough.

Let me try adding an image for the message it was a warm birthday note, handwritten by me!
It-Said, 

“May this birthday bring you peace, just like the Ganga flows—gentle, powerful, and timeless. Please excuse my poor-handwriting—it's been ages since I’ve actually used pen and paper!”
