[quote=Anonymous]A few years ago my husband, our 2 year old and I stayed at his cousin's place in France. It was by no means filthy, but it was dusty, the kitchen smelled (I eventually realized it was all the French cheese, LOL), the bathroom was dirty, etc. It was only for a few days, so I literally didn't take a shower except for a quick rinse one night - I would wipe DD and myself down with baby wipes. The bathroom just grossed me out, and it was the first time I actually smacked DD's hand because she kept trying to touch to toilet seat. On the 3rd day, another cousin (the first one's sister) also came to visit. My feelings were validated because she immediately started cleaning. This being her brother's place she had no issues telling him it was dirty:) Once she started cleaning, everyone pitched in and we were all able to enjoy ourselves a little more after that. I was so glad to go back to my sister's place (another stop in our trip) and take a super long, hot shower:) I think the gift of a cleaning service might be a workable idea, but it has to come from your husband and be more subtle, i.e. start it way in advance, as opposed to just before you arrive:) I also like the idea of sheets etc. as gifts.
