What have people done with hiding loved ones urns or ashes?

Hi, Everyone - 

My Mom's ashes are housed in one of my AirBnB listings. 

I'm trying to figure out a respectful way and place to hide them to prevent creeping out the guests, but also being very respectful to my Mom.

How have others dealt with this situation? Thank you!

I put anything I don't want used or broken in a locked closet. An Airbnb I stayed in once was a 3 br apartment, but only 2 were available because 1 was used to lock away valuables. 

ok

Why would you keep your mothers ashes in a listing? I think you should move them to where you live.

This has to be a wind-up.... surely??  🤤

 

It's your Mom, @Nathan338 At least keep her somewhere safe, far away from your rental listings, where her urn won't end up smashed to pieces by careless/nosy guests, and her ashes won't end up all over the living room floor!
