When the guests checking in I will menioned about my house rules and has also listed on a paper, put at fridge for read. I also put a note at each big item who need to attention, but some guests are careless and don't listen your talking the rules.
1. shoes no off when go in to the house, I have put the note on the door.
2. I have written a manual use guide next to the washing machine but they don't follow / read
3. non- stick frypan they dont care just use fork to mix the food and caused scratches
4. rubbish needs to group into recycle and general waste, but they all put into the general waste.
5. left the used utensils for other people to wash for them
there was a 50 years old man really no house trained person and careless and no considerate;
1. wasting so much of my water, (water is very expensive in AU), when i came in the house 1 day, he was washing his dishes, then he heard the sound of openning door, he walked to the door to check it out, and talked to me but he did not turn off the tap, and water just keep running till he returned back to the sink. I guess it was wasting 15 L of water of his behaviour. I immediately stopped him that "can you turn off the water tap 1st". ( i was thinking he may has did something wrong that was why he was concerning people come in)
2. before that, he was using my washing machine on his 1st day, he accumlated lots clothings from his previous stay (no laundry facility) and washed at my house, then 2nd day, he forgot to wash his brand new bath towel, then wash again, but was using 3 hrs & 7 mins -white programe to wash just only 1 bath towel, i have found out and asked him why dont you select "time save" button? he told me that "I thought the 3 hrs is only 3 mins wash time", I said, non of washing machine can do a 3 mins to complete a wash, at least 30 mins, as run water and drain & spam water is already 3 mins, dont say the wash.
3. after he cleaned the used dishes but always still have stains.
I really dislike this person, as I didn't know what else he will done wrongly again, I felt uncomfortable to left him alone stayed in the house. end up I torlent till he left, but I was so upset, I only charge him aud 20 per night (backpacker) but he just waste my things, did what he used to do, did not know to comply other house's rules, be honest still diff bw your home and other people's home and made my mood so badly, it is not really worth to hosting such guests.
I want to ask the hosts have such experience?
