My friend sees nothing wrong with her being away from home overnight and her 13yo DD having a couple of friends over to stay and her 17 yo son having a couple of his friends over too.
I know for a fact one of the host girl's friends fanices her older brother.
I think it is naive to think this is OK - I know mothers of sons will come on and say blokes are not all pervs or rapists and I KNOW that, but it makes me feel uneasy - I just dont think it's good sense to have that set up. The girls may well be a bit flirty, there may be peer pressure and dares no matter how sensible and reliable they all usually are. There may be gate crashers or friends of friends who the mum did not even know were coming round.

I think she's being daft to allow this. Or is it me? Would you let your DD go?

What? No other adults there at all?
Your friend is looking for trouble. Is she too,old to remember her teenage years maybe?
