Time to go home: how much is acceptable to visit relatives and friends
How long can you stay in someone's home before you start overstaying your hospitality? At what point does a dear guest turn into an uninvited? Perhaps not as much time as you think, you can visit friends and relatives, reports Travel Leisure.
According to survey Serta Simmons Bedding on Sleep Disorders, which was attended by 2000 Americans of different generations, 49% of respondents said they think spending four days or more in someone's home as a guest is too much. Luckily, 79% of those surveyed said their guests are living up to this social norm by staying four nights or less during the holidays.

“It’s not such a simple thing to visit!”
Indeed, this rule is important, because, as the survey showed, both hosts and guests lose a ton of sleep during such visits. In fact, the bedding company noted that "those who host friends and family during the holidays lose two and a half hours of sleep a day preparing to host guests in their home."
In terms of guests, the company noted that 75% of participants said their sleep cycle was disrupted during their stay because they often feel like they need to go to bed and wake up at the same time as the host.
