Hi all,
Just read a post where host Wendy of Stonington, CT suggested that calling ABB everytime something goes wrong is a little much. Basically, your house, your rules, guest observes or leaves.
While this may sound a little cut-and-dried, I think it is brilliant.
Imagine you are running a guest house or rental property entirely on your own initiative and without ABB.
If something went wrong and you felt the guest/tenant had to go and there was no one to call (except perhaps the police or emergency services if it got that serious), what would you do?
Now I know we are concerned about bad reviews, blocked calendars etc because in reality, we are on ABB and not entirely independent.
Still, with a little imagination and some authoritativeness, some things may be better and faster resolved without wasting time looking for the ABB phone number, sending a ream of emails, venting on the forum, and feeling generally upset or afraid of consequences.
Just my two cents. I'm ready for any dressing-down now.
Thank you for reading and with thanks to Wendy of Stonington, CT for sparking my imagination.
