I did. They actually stayed for about three weeks (I host long term stays). It was supposed to be a month, but because of the whole COVID excuse (which I am sure was not true), the stay got shortened by a few days.
I did not personally dislike these guys. The were not 'bad' people, nor were they some kind of scammers. However, the were not ideal guests at all. They smoked in the bedroom (cigarettes and weed), even though I am pretty lenient about smoking and there are other areas they could have used. They made an awful mess in the kitchen and the amount of trash and food waste I had to deal with after they left was beyond anything one would normally expect.
The main problem was that they complained constantly about their room being freezing, which I didn't understand, and to the point where one was so rude and aggressive about it that I had to sit them down and tell them it was NOT okay to speak to me like that.
The weird thing is, that although my house is big and old and therefore cold in winter, that bedroom is the warmest in the house and they had no issue with the temperature in the rest of the house and walked around in vest tops. They kept complaining, but refused to use the extra bedding I supply and refused to let me into the room to check if the heaters were okay. They kept saying the heaters worked fine but the room was still freezing. I couldn't understand it. I realised later that they must have been opening the windows all the time because they were smoking in there.
Anyway, like I said, not the worst guests in the world, but because of all the weird shenanigans prior to their arrival, I had a gut feeling that these guests were going to be hard work and they were...
That being said, I got paid for the whole month, there were no major damages and they didn't leave a negative review. In fact, they didn't leave a review at all.
