Hi everyone!
I am not sure what to do or if I should do anything. This is a very strange problem.
My tenants have the duplex next to mine; behind their unit is my Airbnb studio. My tenants are great and have never had problems vis a vis my Airbnb guests.
One tenant asked if her very ill mom could stay with them for a while, and of course I said yes. Sadly, this woman is dying.
My tenant's brother told me today that she will likely die here within a short time. I suppose this means it's a matter of days. I hadn't realized that she would pass away here.
The mother is staying in my tenants' back room, which isn't far from my Airbnb unit.
Despite the sadness -- I met the mom some time ago and she's lovely -- I have to admit that one of my first thoughts concerned my Airbnb guests.
Specifically, what if the lady passes away and my guests see her being transferred?
I know this is so morbid, and chances are that the timing would not occur just as my guests happen to be arriving or leaving. Yet, if I were a guest myself, it would be disquieting to see a coroner visit the premises while I'm staying there.
I thought of saying to my guests: "Just for your information, my tenant has her elderly mom staying in the back room. You may see relatives come and go, but it won't affect your stay."
I don't even know what that means, but it's the best I can come up with!!
Or maybe the best thing is to say nothing about it.
Help!
