Question
I rented a small hall to give a lesson to a group of people. When I arrived at the hall shortly before the lesson, it turned out that the place was completely dirty from a small party held there the previous day. The tables still had food and drinks on them, and the floor was in a filthy state. Since the lesson was supposed to take place shortly and there was no possibility to find another place, I reluctantly cleared the tables myself and cleaned the floor a bit, and held the lesson there. Should I pay the hall owner, and how much?
Answer
Hello
You should pay the full price, deducting only the cost of cleaning.
