Can I get a second opinion about upcoming guest
My wife and I are hosting on Airbnb and just received an initial message from a guest that instantly booked our place for April. Our current pricing structure is a base price with an extra fee per guest starting at 2 and in our house rules we list “no parties or events”. I’m curious as to how other hosts would handle this guest? Our concern is that they have only paid for two guests but will be using the house for a large group.
Message from guest:
Hello Patrick & Theresa!
Hello!
I’m Rosie a Grubb and my husband Rod & I are Christians and will be attending the Ark Encounter Conference for 5 days and wanted a place close by. We do not partake in alcohol, smoking or anything unhealthy.
Rod is a Deacon in our church in Henderson, NV. We are both retired.
This is our first booking on AirBnb too!
Your place looked very cozy perfect for our needs and homey as well so we could visit and fellowship with others we know who will be attending the conference & guest speakers at the conference. Hope you have extra folding chairs.
We are on a special diet called Keto, so we can only eat healthy high fat foods, avocados, fresh farm eggs, grass fed beef etc. no carbs, nothing high in sugar like fruit, or anything processed. This life change will keep us disease free, healthy and never needing medications.
So hopefully you can help us with a place to shop at as we rather cook our own meals than eat fast foods.
I love Horizon Organic Heavy cream for my coffee, and real butter from grass fed cows.
I make my own bread, do you have a mixer that kneads dough or bread pans?
We have a son and daughter in law who lives near Cincinnati who just lost their baby a few months ago and it will be nice to have a place to get together and visit them while we are at the conference if they want to stop by as well after work to see us.
I saw a fireplace in the photo! It would be nice to use but is it a real fireplace? I didn’t see a screen.
Anyway, we look forward to the Ark Encounter, Creation Museum and Horse back riding if possible near by! I just love horses!
I booked your place as it was a reasonable price for our vacation and be able to get there early to see Kentucky before the conference.
Plus it had a King bed we are used too. We look forward to staying in your beautiful place and we will take care of it while we are there.
Thank you!
Rosie & Rod Grubb
