Accepted Answer

Please ignore the 'All Staff' option as it is a fixed option set by Wix.com which we are unable to remove or rename. We only have two private rooms available for booking.

Question 12

My iPhone event calendar shows that the Private Onsen session is 1 hour. Why is that so?

Accepted Answer

All our private onsen sessions are 1 hour 30 minutes by default. We had contacted Wix support previously regarding this, and it is due to the iPhone's own default mechanism that it allocates a default duration of 1 hour in the event calendar.
 
Do note that the duration is manually adjustable.
