Here is a generic message she leave: "Good morning
Your check out is at 11am. When you leave please don’t forget to leave me the keys on the small table in the room. I’m at work and won’t be able to check you out personally. Wish you all the best and thank you for choosing my place to stay. You are truly an amazing guest. Looking forward to host you again.
Goodbye" - There is no small table and she was there, pretending not to be.
Although the stay on the couch was pleasant enough, I thought (because of her message to me left at 12:56 AM) that I would get up, go eat breakfast at the corner store, come back, do my paperwork for my job, shower, collect my things, let myself out (as per her instructed message) and be on my way. Not so, she expects her guests to get up and leave before she gets up. She complained to me that her neighbor's party on the roof making her tired from not being able to sleep. I told her I thought the party was starting while she was out, because I saw a couple people drinking on the roof and she said I was jumping to conclusions, when she was the one that put that idea in my head. If you just need a couch to crash on, don't mind checking out early, have to check in through her maze of instructions that include going to the address across the street where you have to wave into the wrong window, call her, then she leads you up the elevator and gives you instructions to come and go through the stairwell, like some rat maze. She asked what I did for work and I thought we could share experiences in our similar field but she explained she is a frustrated art/ photo/film worker completely over the industry and currently is trying to go into the field psychology, so if you like be psychoanalyzed without having to pay or asking, this is the spot.
