I have my second guest here for 3 days. She is very nice and educated. She is a professor at a well known college. I created a house manual and left it on her table but I guess she did not have the time to read it. I live there , I ask that since it is a shared bath that we all keep it tidy. There are ample drawers to use in bathroom vanity and my fault I did not put a toothbrush holder although I did not think it sanitary to do so. I found her wet toothbrush and water droplets on top of the finished wood vanity and though it does have a sealer coat on it, there are now water marks. I didn't say anything and I cleaned up the water and placed a metal tray on top of vanity and put her toothbrush and toothpaste into the tray with a folded dry washcloth , once again the next morning I found the wet toothbrush on the vanity with watermarks. I read that "sticky notes" is a good option to place around different areas for my expectations as a host. I know guests have expectations, so do I . They obviously don't read the manual. I did communicate to her that I put up notes- they are handwritten with please and thank you and I laminated them- but I told her that it wasn't just for her, that it was for future guests also. Your thoughts? Also , I have ample snacks the first day, changed the shower head because the existing one wasn't accommodating, - my question is, am I to supply snacks everyday? She asked if I had a coffee to go cup, I had a styrofoam cup but no top- am I to supply this? I rent a room,. My bedroom is over hers, my darn floors squeak when I walk on them, I need to get them fixed- aside from this - I thought even after fixing the floors if my husband and I should sleep in the guest room down the hall as for our guests not to hear us talking and moving about. We find ourselves tip toeing around and whispering- in our description we put down that it is owner occupied and potential for noise because you will hear us moving about. Suggestions please!
