SIX Months ! ! !

August 2nd marks SIX MONTHS since our first guest slept here!
• 564 breakfasts have been served (plus a few other meals)
• guest stays of one-night to 3 months
• single guests to families of six

It has been over four months since the last post to this blog. I am happy to inform you that this is because of the invigorating success the Green Gate Guesthouse has been experiencing. Each month we have been more heavily trafficked than the month before.

We have been lucky enough to be a sanctuary for guests of all sorts.
We have acted as a respite for people traveling great distances. We have had athletes of disciplines from soccer to gymnastics and from cyclists to javelin throwers. We even sheltered a band when their tour bus broke down!

We’ve been happy to host people while they house hunt in Greensboro, and we’re proud to be a resource for community building like that. We have had people traveling for business and pleasure.

Of course we have had many guests who were in town for events going on at our local colleges and the American Hebrew Academy, just down the street.

GGG has now been open long enough to start seeing returning customers, and we can’t explain how grateful we are for their continued business. We hope to see many of you again and even more of you for the first time.

Lastly, on a personal note, my name is Gabe.
Dassi, the owner and operator of the Green Gate Guesthouse is my mother, and I have to take this opportunity to say that her dedication to making the Guesthouse a welcoming, hospitable, and loving place has not gone unnoticed. Her work makes me very proud, and I’m glad that you all will be able to see how wonderful the home she makes is.

Our First Month

WOW!  We have had a great start. 

I would like to report our reservations count.  There are many ways to count, but since we have three rooms of very different sizes some of them are hard to follow . . .

Simplest count is this:  47 is the total number of nights guests slept here!

If you want more statistics, read on — if not, thanks for checking in!

Amaryllis Room (biggest) = 4 people slept over 4 nights (total 16); room opened on February 12th with first guest on February 15th.

Bluebells Room (mid-sized) = 10 people slept over 8 nights (total 14); room opened on January 31st, with first guest on February 2nd.

Crocus & Daffodils Room (smallest) = 3 people slept over 16 nights (total of 17); room opened on February 14th, with first guest on February 19th.

 

 

The Word is Out

People love staying at the Green Gate Guesthouse and we believe that you will too!  (whether Greensboro is your final destination or a great place to spend the night)

Our Blue and ‘Grad’Rooms opened this week. 
As word of mouth spreads rapidly, we recommend that you make your reservations right away.

We are looking forward to pampering you!

Review of Purple Room, on AirBnb:
“Dassi is an outstanding hostess. She was friendly, responsive, gracious and attentive to every anticipated need. Her home is beautifully classic but brimming with cheery color. The bed and linens were completely comfortable and her kosher food was delicious and abundant. I appreciated her accommodation of my inconvenient travel schedule. It was great to find such a lovely place to stay so close to the airport! I will definitely check her availability the next time I fly out of GSO!”

We Are OPEN !

After many weeks of renovations, painting & preparations — Our first guest stayed on February 2nd.

Lovely woman.

She chose us due to our close proximity to the airport, as she had an early morning flight.
