The Dos and Don'ts of The BIeld
Some guests didn't like the fact that a set of recommended house rules is briefly discussed upon arrival To be fair, some of the rules, including which doors to lock and requests not to slam doors, are likely provided only for the safety and consideration of all guests.
negative:
Strict Check-In Times
Some guests have found that the hosts are a bit inflexible when it comes to check-in, so don't plan to arrive earlier than what's outlined in the terms of your accommodation. While this is a common policy for many establishments, a few guests did note that it was a minor inconvenience to them.
