Laundry
You are welcome to do laundry as frequently as you would like. I personally tend to use the washer as a bit of a hamper and will try to avoid that during your visit. Should there be any dirty laundry in the washer when you go to use it, you can either remove it and set it on top of the dryer or you are welcome to wash your items which what's in the washer.
If there is a load of laundry already in the appliance you need to you, you are welcome to let me know or move it to next location (i.e. if in the washer, move to the dryer. If in the dryer put in the laundry basket).
There is a hamper in the closet of your guest bedroom that you are welcome to use. There should be a laundry basket behind the laundry room door you are welcome to use. If it is not hanging up, it is in use.
Tide pods are located to the left of the washer on a little cart. Stain removed is on the shelf under the pods.
Feel free to use whatever cycle you would like. I tend to use the normal cycle for most things.
