Behind every glowing review at a cozy bed and breakfast, there’s a host who’s learned one big truth: you can’t make everyone happy. These days, online reviews can make or break a business, and running a B&B means juggling real care with sometimes impossible expectations.
Take Emma, for example. She runs a charming old townhouse B&B in Edinburgh. Her place has soft, fancy sheets and breakfast that’s won awards. But one guest still gave her only three stars—all because the wooden floors creaked. Emma had already explained in her listing that the house was built in the 1700s and full of old-world charm.
So now, Emma welcomes guests with a smile and a little joke: “Our home has character—you’ll hear it breathe just like we do!” Instead of scaring people away, this honest and friendly touch has brought more guests in. Many travelers love a stay that feels real—not cold or perfect, just warm and true.
