We just installed a washer dryer in our rental flat yesterday, and it's already causing a problem. I'm really annoyed by it.
We had a family of three check in last night for a three-night stay at 9:30 pm. They didn't know that there would be a washer dryer when they booked: it's a brand new amenity. We left them 6 large bath sheets, plus four hand towels and 4 face cloths - this is the normal number we leave people, and we have never had an issue before. No one has ever asked for extras: we supply lots of hooks and a towel bar in the bathroom, as well as a portable drying rack, if they need space to dry them. They could also throw them in the dryer if they wanted to dry them more quickly. They just sent me a message, asking where the laundry soap is, because they need to wash their towels. I said that we could supply extra towels, if needed, but we don't suppy daily fresh towels (it's a self-catering apartment, and again, this has never come up before). I told them that the washer is inteded for guests to do their personal laundry for longer stays, if it's needed.
If you have a washer-dryer in your place, how do you deal with this kind of thing? How do you limit useage, or do you? I absolutely don't want people washing their towels after 1 day, nor do I really want people doing an excessive amount of laundry.
