Why are people so disgusting?

[Booboostwo]

We have a one bedroom cottage next to our cottage where friends often stay when they come to visit (we live in sunny, holiday destination).

I just went into the cottage after our friends left. They stayed 10 days and it has been a few days since they left. I couldn't check earlier as I had to go away for an emergency and DH was left holding the fort.

I found:

• a bag with rubbish including used toilet paper in the toilet. We have a perfectly serviceable toilet, you can throw in the usual toilet stuff but friends kept throwing their used toilet paper in bags. When they threw the first bag in our kitchen bin (boak!) we explained there was no need, but clearly they did not like our toilet.

• a sheet with blood on it through to the mattress protector. Of course accidents happen, period, nosebleed, etc., but don't you try to dirty part immediately and tell someone so they can wash the sheet?

• a dirty cutting board, because of course you leave that for some other sod to wash.

• rubbish thrown directly in the kitchen bin with no bag so that someone has to reach in and clean it out (the rubbish bag provided was just above the bin and had not been used).

Isn't this disgusting? Should I give up on having friends over?

That is disgusting and i'm shocked hat they would treat your house like that.
I certainly wouldn't have them back

Your friends are very disrespectful and I would absolutely not be having them over again. You should always leave a place as you found it imo. I'd be inclined to message so called friends and tell them how disappointed you are that they've left the place in such a state.

They didn't "like" your toilet?! Who the hell heads for the bog and thinks "hmm, I don't really like this toilet very much"

Your friends are weirdos! Get new ones immediately.

It's gross, and I'm pretty gross.

Regarding paper though, don't you have to put looroll in bin rather than toilet in some countries; could it be habit?

That is disappointing and yes it would put me off having friends to stay

Don't give up having friends, just don't have those friends over.

We have people to visit for up to a fortnight regularly. The state the guest bedroom and bathroom are left in varies considerably.

If you leave the place a state and your children are annoying you aren't getting a return invitation.

Your friends are bizarre. There is no way I would not say something!

Yep. Minging. YANBU.

My parents let their caravan out twice. First time they came back to it they found a 2 month old roast chicken left in the oven. Basically a stinking green ball of mould.

Second time they found the occupants had taken all the pure wool blankets down to the beach and got tar on them. (Dorset, pebble beach, tar there sometimes). No attempt to clean them. Well, it stuck to the blankets like the proverbial shit and they had to throw £££ of lovely bedding away :(

Where are your friends from? It's normal to put loo roll in bin in many countries, because it'd kill the plumbing to flush it.

Your "friends" are disgusting slobs and they've just waved goodbye to any free holidays in future.

That is gross, don't invite them again.

YANBU

I wish I never clicked on this!!!

Send them a bill. .

That is pretty minging and disrespectful really I wouldn't have them back and probably would say to them why. We used to have a static caravan and would lend it to family and friends, only stipulationwas they cleaned it before they left one exfriend and her family trashed it i was so annoyed and upset we had words and fell out.

We all come from a country where most toilets in the islands cannot accept toilet paper...but we're not in that country, not on an island, and there was no indication our sewage system was anything other than typical. I can understand the first bag of toilet paper (although I think it was disgusting to walk into our kitchen and put it in our bin without saying anything), but we then explained the toilet was fine for toilet paper so why did they insist? And why did they leave it all behind for me to find?

They were the guests from hell. I know no one will believe this because it is completely OTT, but the 12yo daughter called DH a fat wanker (for no discernible reason, he didn't do anything to her) and did random stuff like flick water at DH's face from across the dinner table. Her father did not comment as he does not believe in making value judgement about children (he pulled me up on calling 3yo DS a 'good boy' as that is apparently 'trying to pass on my values to him').

Takes shit parenting to another level.

I'm just venting now. It has been a horrific week and this was the cherry on the top.

They sound a delight why are you even friends with these people

Vent away they sound complete loons

Having in the past cleaned hotel rooms and holiday lets I sadly know only to well how totally disgusting many many people are

Don't invite them again

If the request to stay and you don't want to say no then create a basic website with prices per week & cleaning costs and say "fantastic that you want to come again. - here are the prices let me know which week you want to book"

I have a holiday home and had to do that as some people are shit guests - thankfully not literally leaving it for me to clear up though like yours 🤢

People have different standards to you.
Does;t make them horrible, just different.

That is disgusting and I wouldn't let them stay again. If they ask, I would tell them why. But I wouldn't make a big deal out of unless they do.

Different standards doesn't mean you leave dirty toilet paper laying about in somebodies house that makes you lazy and disrespectful leave shitty toilet paper in your own house if that is your want not somebody elses

Just make sure they didn't get a second set of keys cut a-la Spanish Holiday Home Thief.
Gruesome!

This kind of behaviour can put you right off hom sap.
