I had initially booked Samantha's flat for 2 months. The first three weeks went perfectly, the flat, the location, the exchanges with the hostess, everything was excellent. Relations with Samantha drastically deteriorated in less than 48 hours when I asked her if I could have a visit from my mother for a few days. Samantha's reaction was so hostile and disproportionate to my request that I left immediately. Even though I had just paid my second month's rent, I did not want to stay.
