Penny”s place is in a good location. Near the airport, and not far from everything else. The place is set up more like a place to rent rooms, not like an apartment. The living room feels more like a entryway of a hotel. This feeling led me to believe that I was best to stay in my bedroom. Which I did.
I got some Chinese food one night and thought I was being careful. The bag leaked on her tablecloth in her kitchen. I was going to try and clean it before my checkout, but Penny had stopped by and noticed it. She said it couldn’t be cleaned, so i offered and paid her to buy a new one.
Once I checked out she claimed that sheets and other items were also stained. I don’t believe I stained her sheets and asked her if she washed them. She never replied. My feeling is that she is trying to get guests to buy her new stuff. I think since I quickly replaced the tablecloth she thought I would continue without question. I have been a host myself for a long time, and, understand certain wear and tear is part of the job. I don’t try to pin things on a guest and make them pay for it. The price is great for the location, but please be careful you are not taking advantage of.
