Hi
Just got a guest informed me that she accidentally placed my electric kettle on the gas stove and burnt the base. I'm of course very grateful that she's an honest guest. However, I started to worry if the world is not always so wonderful.
If the guest made such damage but chose to hide then I really don't think I can discover it until the second guest notifying me. Then if the second guest used the broken kettle and caused something bad, even body injury to himself, what would be my liability? Since the first guest had checked out, seemed like it becomes the host's responsibility to ensure every amenity is safe and in good condition.
Any advice much appreciated!
