We realize that every Inn is unique, and the job of each Innkeeper is different. So we won't operate your inn our way ... we'll do it your way! We provide short-term interim innkeeping, typically ranging from just a couple of days to two weeks.
We also provide Bed and Breakfast and Inn Consulting, covering a variety of areas, providing guidance and coaching to both new and experienced innkeepers.
Below are our Interim Innkeeping, Inn-sitting core beliefs and services. Core Elements We operated our Inns with the belief that the real difference is in the details and exceeding our guests' expectations was the goal every time. We believe we accomplished this by providing:
"authentic" hospitality - more than just being polite, but going the extra step - above and beyond what the guest might expect . . . helping to create memorable experiences - we will do this for your guests as well
impeccable accommodations - making sure we provided value added amenities that guests appreciated; maintaining our properties so they always looked "newly refurbished" and using high-end guest products. At your Inn we'll accomplish this by ensuring that your property is at it's absolute best prior to guest check-in
unparalled customer service - we know guests are on vacation and our job is to make it a most memorable experience. So while working at your Inn, we'll make your guests feel special while assisting with lunch and/or dinner reservations and making suggestions and arrangements for a day of fun while they are exploring your area
delectable breakfasts - we served multi-course candlelit breakfasts each morning, using the freshest local and organic ingredients available, alternating between sweet and savory options. While working for you, we will cook breakfasts your guests expect and that reflect your inn's unique style. We are licensed ServSafe Food Manager certified and we will happily prepare your breakfast selections, using your recipes or our own. You decide!
