1. Emphasize that you want a 100% clean room and bathroom. Don’t make it about money or refunds, but about your own comfort

2. If you are paying for all of Thanksgiving dinner it is reasonable to enjoy their order of breakfast food. Ask them to order enough for your family Thu-Sat[/quote]

Op here. Totally agree with number 1. I already send a note to brother in charge of accommodations, as a reply to his original email way back when detailing all six rooms and who got what, just as a word to the wise, to please just set aside our room so it was clean and unused on our arrival. He’s the low drama brother so he  will get it.

Paying for thanksgiving dinner was kind of an accident! The relative where we’re going for
Dinner for 20 is in no position to cook or buy dinner, so my mom
Offered  to order an entire precooked grocery meal. Then she had trouble with the website, so I ended up ordering! She’s insanely generous financially with us on trips, so I’d feel like a jerk asking her to pay me back. We are lucky that on shared vacations money has never been a stress. [/quote]

Nope, telling just the low drama brother is not enough. You need to send a friendly email to everyone asking them not to go into your room or bathroom at all. Don’t make your brother be the enforcer plus he might not do it.[/quote]
