At sign-up you can choose the Front desk plan of Balie (website, bookings and invoices) or single Balie blocks. Kantoor and Tienda are not yet offered on the sign-up page: write to us for them. The sign-up page shows the price of each plan and block before you start; for more about the plans, see shilohbv.com.
