Hi all, this is my first post. I've been a host since the end of March. I haven't had anyone trash my place but have had a couple of experiences I didn't know what to say or do. The first was a very nice couple who stayed 3 nights. Very friendly but after they left there were two problems I had. The first was when I was done changing the bed and stood back looking at it, one side was two inches shorter than the other. I ot to looking under the bed and the wheels on that side were completely bent over and almost broken off. The husband must of weighted close to 350-375 lbs. When I went into the bathroom it was apparent that while at the toilet he just covered one nostril and blew the mucus out of the other onto my glass shower wall. It was so dried on that it took over 45 min. to get it all scrubed off. It took and hour and a half to get the wheels off the bed and figure out what to put on them to bring the bed back up to the right height. They left a 5 star review for me and I didn't say anything about the bed or his disgusting habit. What could I have said to warn others about his weight without being discriminating? And other than rating cleanliness on the other? I didn't even think about it falling under cleanliness, just disgusting.
The othe incident was a mother and daughter from India. In my coffee/ kitchenette area. I keep a bowl full of individual creamers, about 25-30, there is hot cocoa, sugar etc. When they left all the creamers, sugars{regular, raw & stevia}, again about 30 pkgs, and all the hot cocoa was gone. some coffee was used but not much. At first I thought that they took them, but no all the empties wher in the trash. They must like drinking very sweet milk. How do I warn other hosts to just put out a few of these items?
I woud appreciate any feed back on how I should of handle both of these incidents so the same doesn't happen to other hosts.
Thank you
Linda
