What if the guest doesn't want to pay in advance when checking in at the hotel?

This is the rule in the industry. You have to pay not only the accommodation, but also the deposit. If you don't want to pay in advance, ask him to find another hotel We don't accept credit cards. No hotel will let guests check in now without paying. Don't worry. Otherwise, you will have a lot of trouble. The guests left without paying, took things from the guest room and so on. Ignore him.
