On house guests

Do you love or loathe having house guests?

Having house guests is really tiring. Aside from entertaining them, I have to straighten out the house as it would be shameful on our part having guests with all the clutter. If guests are here for a quick visit and won’t spend the evening here, it would be easier for me. However, whether I love or loathe having house guests depends on who that guests are and depending on the purpose that brought them here. If it were my relatives or friends, I would really love it! I won’t care if the house needs a little cleaning because I know they would understand and what I LOVE having relatives coming over is they don’t treat themselves as guests. I mean, they help out in cooking and doing the dishes. But then before we moved, I loathe having guests (aside from my siblings) because I have to straighten the house all by myself, cook for them, make their bed, and after they leave, I have to take care of the beddings that they used even if they aren’t my personal guests.
