Prepay by check at Gallows Point |
|
I talked to the property manager yesterday and he said I need to send the balance of my stay to him by check BEFORE I go!??! I have read a lot of good things about Gallows Point, therefore, I am not really worried. However, I do not like giving anyone my money before I get something in return.
Do I have anything to be worried about?
Thanks (I guess I am a little apprehensive because this is my honeymoon...I would hate for something really bad to happen)

Hi Dave~ We have a room booked for one night next month and we had to pay for it in full upfront. Two weeks later we received a welcome letter and receipt in the mail. I believe this is standard. Have a wonderful time! Report as inappropriate | ||||||

Consider paying with a credit card. That way, you have some recourse should the place unexpectedly shut down for some reason (fire, flood, etc). I would think that to be fair given the prepayment requirement. Report as inappropriate | ||||||

Don't worry... we too made a reservation with Suite St. John for a unit at Gallows Point. They allowed us to use a credit card for the initial deposit, but required a check for the entire balance one month prior to our arrival date. Booking through Gallows Point directly, I believe you may use a credit card for the entire amount... I would not worry about this... Suite St. John has an excellent reputation!

Dave, we too are staying at Gallows (leave tomorrow morning)!!!! When booking through Suite St. John, you can pay deposit with a credit card, but the balance which is due a month prior to your reservation is due in the form of a check. When booking through Gallows directly, you can pay the entire thing by credit card. I wouldn't worry at all! We also got the receipt in the mail... Suite St. John has an excellent record... I've read many reviews about them and they're all glowing! Report as inappropriate | ||||||

I just booked our stay at Gallows Point today for July. However, we booked directly with Gallows Point. We're staying 8 nights....paid a 3 night deposit with a credit card. Have fun on your honeymoon! Report as inappropriate | ||||||

Can anyone tell me if noise from construction has become a problem at Gallows? Report as inappropriate | ||||||

THanks for all the replies. We are leaving for St. John on April 3rd. We cannot wait! I think I am going to get a certified check at the bank and have the check sent certified mail. I would like to leave as much of a paper trail as possible. Gallows Point has a shining reputation, but I never like paying for something before I get to enjoy it.
