Overall, our hosts were nice & friendly and welcomed us into their home.
However, staying in someone’s else’s home at the same time is totally impractical and doesn’t work. Having been giving a long list of do’s & don’ts of house rules, and conforming to them. It was very disappointing to find the owners didn’t reciprocate, and abide by their own rules.
We felt trapped in the bedroom, with no tv, no drinking, no eating or noise in the room, and had to listen to the owners watch tv downstairs till we’ll after midnight.
We would never stay in a situation like this again, we paid a hotel price for a room we couldn’t eat, or drink in, with no tv, and no bath towels supplied to shower. In the end my partner went downstairs and said “if I can’t best you I’ll join you”, and watched 2 episodes of “The Crown” with them while I suffered upstairs.
This had been submitted with the view to educating the owners as to how it feels to enter someone’s else’s home.
