What time is reasonable to open the "Home Office" when there are guests ?

[Michelle53]

Hi all

I work from home, and my office is directly above my guest space. I don't generally use the office on weekends, since I have a laptop in my family room for personal use. 

My office hours are the usual - 8.30am to 5pm but, occasionally, I have to sort out issues for clients outside of those hours. 

I'm pretty quiet up here, and try to avoid loud phone calls which might disturb a guest early in the morning.  Any Zoom calls I have to do are well within regular office hours.  Sometimes there is printing and scanning. 

What are folks thoughts about what times are reasonable to be working when guests might possibly still be sleeping in ?

I don't currently have anything in my listing about that, but sometimes I do mention to folks booking that I work from home.

We work from home too, my "office" (where the printers are) is next to the guest room.  I try not to go in there before checkout (10am) or after 9pm at night.  It works OK.
