Like did you drink a beer, and eat breakfast?

Was it like "Hey do you want a beer?" Or like... How does that even work? I've never interacted with any of the Hosts at an AirBnB - they never seem to be home, and they clearly go out of the way to avoid me.

They sent me a menu when they confirmed the booking and asked me if I wanted anything when I was there. They'd bought in soy milk I think it was because I'd asked if they had a vegan option, which was nice enough of them. I suppose these must've been the exception rather than the rule then.
