I have a guest that contacted me the night before he was scheduled to arrive, and informed me he would be arriving at 2:00 a.m. that night (morning!!!). Apparently he hadn't read his train's arrival time correctly. I let him know I was asleep, but that he could call when he got here and stay. This is a shared room in a small studio. So now he is sleeping until noon every day, and here on his computer (not for work or other responsibilities) late into the night. Therefore, some of the lights are on too late, and I basically have to leave my own house or tiptoe around half of the day. And he hasn't lifted a finger to even tidy the futon/area where he's sleeping. So, I am wondering if I am being reasonable in starting to feel angry? Or that this is not common courtesy for a small shared space? I have had several other guests with no problems, and I do want to constructively address this. I just don't know whether/how to go about it directly with this guest - or just address it in the house rules for future guests? There is also the fact that technically he stayed here an extra night he hasn't been charged for? Thank you all for any advice!
