Friend spends the weekend with me then ‘reviews’ her experience, wtf!?

[Biscusting]

Friend has been good friend during our uni days. We’ve loosely kept in touch over the years, but different career choices, interests, distance and children have pushed us in different directions.

She messages me out out of the blue to ask about staying a weekend with us. We live in an area popular with tourists.

I’m feeling a bit put out, as don’t fancy hosting, but we had no concrete plans and thought it would be a nice catch up.

Anyway she stays we have dinner out one night. She’s spends a day visiting a popular attraction and we have a nice evening in with a selection of nibbles, pizza, cheese and wine etc. Uneventful, pleasant weekend I feel.

Now i’ve just been browsing FB and looked on her page to see if she’d posted any pictures. To find she’d written quite a lengthy post about her stay. I don’t want to copy and paste, but basically it’s along the lines of, ‘had an okay weekend with Biscusting, staying at her place. Found the breakfast underwhelming and conversation with her DH a bit dry.
The sleigh bed in the guest room was too high and I bumped on the wooden edge so often I have a bruise. The room was too small.’.....the WiFi speed was poor at best’

She goes on to critique the decor and waffles on a lot about the tourist attraction she visited. Then ends the post with ‘all in all i’d give her two stars’

Wtaf is this!? Has she mistaken FB for trip advisor and my home for a hotel!?

We don’t have many shared friends, but people have liked her bloody post. 13 people!

Now the thing is she talked about coming back at the end of July for an exhibition and we made relatively firm plans about her return.

AIBU to tell her to jog on?

This is surely Daily Mail fodder!

I wouldn't post any jokey/sarcastic comments back, I'd just post "I'm actually quite upset at this post. I thought we were friends." Or even the classic Mumsnet "Did you mean to be so rude?"

Don't worry about the likes - I've come to the conclusion that certain people on Facebook like bloody anything out of politeness or stupidity - I decided it when my account got hacked and the hackers posted a load of Chinese sunglasses and some people actually liked the post.

If one of my friends did this I would 100% assume they were making a (bad) joke. Otherwise I’d wonder if she was losing the plot a bit and actually be a bit worried. It’s a really, really unusual and socially unacceptable thing to do. I just can’t imagine anyone doing it unless they were unwell or joking.

If she has form for writing like this and thinking that everyone views her life as a rich source of entertainment she probably is joking but I still think she could have been kinder about it.

I would write a counter review of her as a guest OR post underneath to say 'I've realised you are right, our home is below par and we will never have guests to stay again, hope you can find a three star establishment for your July visit to our area as you obviously won't want to stay with us again'.

Please do respond - this kind of review would only be funny if they were actually being complimentary, she's being a bitch!!

I have to say something, but don’t want to post on my wall! Feels a bit like airing dirty laundry. My work colleagues are added as friends. I’d be mortified if they saw my ‘review’

Maybe a message along the lines of Buzz and expats comments?

Comment on her post:
"How awful! How much did you pay to stay at this place? I hope the place you will stay at in July for the exhibition meets your exacting standards.
Yours in astonishment,
Two Stars"

Give her a review definitely.

Who on earth does she think she is? Inviting herself for the weekend was the Red Flag OP. How pushy as my mother would say.

Breakfast was underwhelming was it Coco Pops? Ungrateful mare.

"Dear Friend,
It's kind but I really can't accept your two and a half stars. I would much rather you took those stars and inserted them into your arse. Don't forget to take your head out of there first, ha ha.
Kind Regards."

OMG 😮 definitely respond! How rude. I’d bin her as well

You should never have work colleagues on your FB.

I’d just reply: „rude classless —twat—ignoramus”.

Even if this was a badly targeted attempt at humour, it was totally at your expense, bagging your private house.
Off you fuck, cuntychops.

What are you going to do OP?

It sounds like a joke that has very badly misfired. I would reply along the lines of 'customer feedback is very important to us, please get in touch with our billing department so we can arrange a discount on your upcoming stay'. And see what she says ....

Let’s have a sweepstake on how long it takes the daily fail to pick up on this thread.

Wow! I'd love to see a screenshot of what she wrote! It's almost unbelievable!

Can you reply under her post so it's on her wall not yours.

Omg how rude!!! She wins CF of the week

Depends how you want to make her feel. If you put a sarky rude comment you're not going to look like you're a cut above her. I'd go for something like 'That's really hurtful and in bad taste. We welcomed you into our home and I thought we'd had a good time. If you regret asking to stay next month you could have just cancelled - which you now have.'

What's that saying - they go low, you go high.

after the courtesy and respect you have given this 'Clown' in accommodating her for the weekend free of charge..

I wouldn't care who saw your reply... she's a cheeky cow OP

I'm angry for you

She's not a friend. She's a bitch.

Who the fuck posts a complaint on FB about a friend who has kindly put her up.

Honestly. get rid. And tell her why!

She sounds completely barking and lacking in self-awareness.

OP, you must confront her as she has massively abused your hospitality. I am surprised that anyone would publicly critique their stay at a friend’s actual home.

This is a joke post yes?

WTF she's a caaaah.

Respond with "thanks for the review" then never speak to her again.

Breakfast was those cook from frozen pastries, a choice of cereals, fruit, yoghurt. She’s vegetarian, so thought this would be the safest option. I thought I was doing well! It’s got to be a bad joke. She is a bit socially awkward at times, but generally quite a quiet and shy person.
