But air B and B isn't really her own space, either. Seems odd to me why you didn't arrange initially, when your kid wasn't sick yet but you were just planning for your mom's visit, for her to have your daughter's room? Seems even stranger you're thinking of sending her back over to the dog place...

The hotel thing doesn't make sense to me either. Let's presume the OP is from the DC area. There are hundreds of hotels (Crystal City has plenty of places to walk to as an example, Tyson's is another considering several are very close to the mall).

If I get the OP's situation, she found an Air BnB within walking distance of her residence?

Lovely. Glad your daughter is feeling a bit better.
Omg. So you still didn't even intend to let your mother have a real bed at all in your house. Why?

Why didn't you let her stay with you in the beginning? Instead of shipping her to a bnb and making your poor 70 yo mother walk to your house. Can you please tell us why she can't stay with you at your house?

My mother drives me batty but I let her have my daughters bed when she comes. My daughter wil sleep on the air mattress in our room or I will let her sleep with grandmas room a few nights in the floor.

Why can't she stay at your house?

And why didn't you get all of her items from a complete strangers shit house?



Blah blah blah.

OP's mother is an adult. Who are we to judge why OP and her mom did?

There's no shortage of hotels around

Right?! Her 4 yo is dealing with some major illness that causes pain, she is pregnant, and somehow all that is missed or glossed over. This is what DCUM is made of: assholes.


Someone answered her question on the first page.

For real. Why is she on the air stress? If it's a twin you send your husband to sleep on it and you and your mom share your bed!

Call Airbnb now and ask for a refund OP. The rental did not meet cleanliness standards so it's within their policy to cover it. Next time, look for a private apartment Airbnb for your mom. Too much can go wrong when you are just getting a room in a strangers house.

This. I would not make someone in their 70s use an air mattress.
