I have a guest who is staying with me for 2 nights, sharing my apartment with me. Last night, her first night, she went out and got very drunk. She came home at 2.30am, vomited and passed out in the toilet. This morning, when I asked her about it, she was very apologetic. Now she has gone out for the day on a tour, expected to return about 7pm tonight. And I have just noticed that she has also vomited on the bed.
So, I'm looking at cleaning costs for the doona as well as cleaning or replacement of the sheets and doona cover. As well as the prospect of having her here again for another night.
At the moment, I cannot find much sympathy for her and am inclined to leave the bed as it is for her to sleep in tonight. I want leave it up to her to 'come clean' about the mess she has left in the bed. I have no other doonas for her to use anyway.
So, what are my options? Is it reasonable to ask her to leave? If I do, what happens next? Can I ask her for $ to repair the damage? Is this security deposit a realistic option to use? I have a deposit that would cover the costs ($200) but have read that its difficult for hosts to access. Is this really true?
Theoretically she has one more night here. What would you do?
