I cant understand the obsession everyone has with "pappas", food is below avg.

Get rid of the carpet, it stains to easily and since its 3 bedroom 1 bath I am assuming they will have kids in the property which means a lot of foot traffic and possibly food and juice stains.

You will most likely have power outages during an ice storm - in the winter if all you have is electric heat this means no heat for your guests and no way to get down.I don't mean this to sound rude, but there are a number of folks who book my cabin in Jan-Feb and never bother to check the weather and if they do check the weather and see a major storm system coming in they don't think about storing up food to get them through a few days.  

Today, I have food on the table and a roof over my head without having to go to work to get the money to pay for it.

While they don't pose a threat to humans they will charge at food and splash water out of the aquarium.  

Usually free food and free drinks.

Clearly there are arguments for and against each strategy, so it's more food for thought than it is "this is a good decision, this is a bad one".With the recent virus situation, I haven't seen much of local change yet (nor would I consider myself a "local expert").

Others need it to put food on the table.

Best of luck, and great job in taking action!

Food for thought.
