Hi Arthur - In Henley, anyone using the communal lounge for anything that causes undue mess would be expected to clean it up themselves or make arrangements for it to be done. Our cleaner, (once a week), does all the public areas and the guest room.
If I have family to stay in the guest room I always give it the'once over' to make sure it's A1 before my guests arrive and I clean the bathroom and whizz round the hoover when they leave. I have never asked but I'm sure most people do the same - though I have found some fluff and sweet wrappers under the beds when I've moved them. I am not the fussiest person in the world but I think it's common courtesy to leave things as, or better than, you find them.

Having said all that, I can't imagine that you have wild parties that wreck the joint or even leave it in much more than a well used state. Perhaps an extra few quid to the cleaner, if there is more work to do than usual, would resolve the problem?? If it's an in-house doo, like Bingo or a musical evening, you could put a tin on the side for everyone to put in at least 50p and give it to the cleaner as a mark of your appreciation.

Just a thought.

Best wishes

Marg
