GUEST WANTS SHOWER CURTAIN INSTALLED.

I have a friend coming to stay with me for over a week in the Summer. She has sent a message asking that a shower curtain be installed in the en-suite bathroom she will use for the duration of her stay. She will pay.

Due to the shape of the bath etc it would be tricky to install a curtain and spoil the look of the place, I'm reluctant to do this, especially as she's getting free board and lodging in Edinburgh during festival time. AIBU reasonable in refusing? PS: She is a very large lady - no one else has complained about this, so guess it's due to her size.

might be from a country where people use shower curtains and feels uncomfortable without one

Presumably she demands hotels install them as well?

"Please remodel your home in order to accommodate my bulk during my free stay in a very expensive city's most expensive time of year."

My answer would be like it or lump it.

Is it possible to get a telescopic pole - we have one of these and it doesn't need any fittings so you can just remove after she leaves

If she wants particular accommodation, she needs to book a hotel!

Why on Earth would she need this? Has she said why?
