Miss Manners: Am I a bad host if I don’t give my guest the biggest room in my timeshare?
DEAR MISS MANNERS: I own a beachfront timeshare with two bedrooms, each with a full bath attached. When I invite a guest, should I offer them the much larger “owner’s suite,” or the very-nice-but-smaller guest suite?
Do I take my guidance from the names of these spaces, or should I give my guest the larger space?
GENTLE READER: The reason you have a guest room — a rather lush one, Miss Manners gathers — is to avoid resenting your guest for displacing you from your own room. So please put your guest in the room for guests.
Please send your questions to Miss Manners at missmanners.com, by email to [email protected], or through postal mail to Miss Manners, Andrews McMeel Syndication, 1130 Walnut St., Kansas City, MO 64106.
