Plot Synopsis

Set at Akwaaba's Mansion at Noble Lane in the Poconos, Pennsylvania, CHECKED INN is a one-hour reality series that follows entrepreneur Monique Greenwood and the couples who visit her family-run, upscale bed and breakfast. In 1995, Greenwood pursued a newfound love for hospitality by opening her first B&B in Brooklyn, NY while also working as a magazine editor. Then, five very busy years later, she landed a dream job at "Essence Magazine," the leading publication for African American women. Monique quickly rose to become Editor-in-Chief -- even as she continued to run the B&B. Much to everyone's shock, Monique eventually decided to walk away from her high-profile job at "Essence." After juggling two professions for years, she wanted to focus on building the B&B business with her husband, Glenn, with the goal of creating a legacy they could pass on to their daughter, Glynn. Today, Akwaaba Bed & Breakfast Inns is the most successful B&B business on the east coast and Monique remains the hands-on force behind it. She runs her now four inns the only way she knows how -- as the heart and soul, the everything planner and the innkeeper. Ever-helpful, Monique even finds herself offering advice to her guests when they confide in her. This series takes place at Noble Lane, where couples go to this former Woolworth estate to push back the world, re-ignite passion and celebrate life's most exciting events. Things may not always go smoothly, but Monique -- with Glynn under her wing -- and the hard-working staff, make sure their guests have an experience they'll never forget. Celebrity guests include two-time Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter Peabo Bryson, black hair care entrepreneur Lisa Price of Carol's Daughter and Pastor John Gray and his wife Aventer.
