Even after all these years it still irritates me - get an enquiry asking how 'mutch' - respond with the price which is advertised on the listing site they have enquired from - chase after a few days of hearing nothing - 'sorry thats too mutch' - durr - its the price as advertised . . . . . :!?
Rant over !
Too mutch !

Had another one today - wanted to book five nights starting tomorrow - this is very heavily discounted as its a free 5 nights between 2 other bookings and they had seen the special offer. So sent booking form, details etc and put off other things so that I could do the changeover tomorrow.
Response was that it was 'pushing their budget' so could we reduce it further? After some thought I decided that if they brought their own towels I could offer them a further discount as saving us the laundry cost. The response was that 'they would have to pass, and that it was a shame that we had no flexibility'
It would cost them more to stay in the local Etap budget hotel with basic room than in our lovely house with garden!!
