My vote for the easiest and correct answer. At the very least, the host could direct guests to another bathroom until the faulty one can be repaired. Certainly if this occurred at my house, I’d want to know before it became a source of discomfort or embarrassment to my guests.

How can there be ANY other options?? \<shaking head…\>
