[Bugged by Landlord]

We had to vacate our apartment from 8am Wed until 12noon Fri. What expenses does the landlord need to cover? Is a hotel room adequate or should there also be reimbursement for meals? Does the hotel room need to be available for the entire time apartment is unusable or only from check-in time the first day until check-out time the last day? Because arrangements made for us were not adequate, we made our own. Now, landlord wants us to pay for the 1st night's hotel charges - we did not receive information regarding inadequate lodging until 8pm Mon - barely enough time to make other arrangements. Cancelled hotel reservation on Wed but hotel is charging landlord anyway for 1st night. By the way, other arrangements were made at our expense and we are not intending to bill landlord.

L should pay for the lodging but not for meals and entertainment.

Since we did not stay in the hotel that was booked for us, should I tell the landlord I will not pay for the one night for which they were charged? I feel they are getting off easy by only paying one night, not the two we were out of apartment. The other arrangements I made involved staying with friends so there was no charge.Thank you for your help. <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by HomeGuru:

You are correct. L was liable for 2 nights' lodging & only had to pay for 1 night. He has nothing to complain about. You didn't even ask L to pay you the difference. Tell him to bug off.
