Don’t get too excited. I was very excited to stay at Jean’s place after getting clarification about his protocols for Covid-19. He let me know the measures he would take. On my last day which was my birthday, he allowed me to check out two hours later. In attempt to steam my birthday top, we discovered his iron was pretty old with burned stains at the bottom. My sister rubbed it on the ironing board and bed to see if we could smooth it out and it left a mark on the sheets. Out of my good will, I purchased a NEW bedsheet, because it was my birthday and I didn’t want him to come back to sheets like that, even though a wash would take it out. I’m not careless and I treat others home like mine. He has the NERVES to request money from ME. When the old iron was met like that. (I’m not sure how those stains would be created from one use with no SIGNS OF BURNS ANYWHERE, but take advantage right?) ALSO, the iron rod in the bathroom is OLD and rusty. It fell down when we arrived and I let him know. It fell down in the shower, when we put it back up etc. And in the middle of the night, which was scary while we were sleeping. We just left it to the side at that point. He knows there’s NO hold on it and just left it there for you to figure out. Funny thing is, I wanted to purchase him one, but I didn’t find that exact metal style in Target. The washer and dryer is also listed and was NOT working. They are covered in filth. I tried to use the dryer to steam my top for my birthday but of course that didn’t work. I never bothered to mention that or request “money”.
So, either way, he communicated right on time, but be careful not to make any noise after 10pm. And be very gentle when entering and leaving the shower. It’s sad to see people take advantage, especially after I let him know about his own iron prior to checking out. I would examine the house prior to getting settled in and let him know what is out of place because he would be the one to label you as the cause.
