What do you see as the attitude of the Greeks twards hospitality in The Odyssey?
Hospitality, or xenia, is a key theme of the Odyssey and something taken very seriously. There's clearly a prescribed routine and formal etiquette.

For example Menelaus is a good host and therefore a good character, same goes for Nestor, Telemachus and Peisistratus whereas the suitors are bad guests, taking advantage of the household and so deserve their fate, Polyphemus is a bad host which shows he is barbaric.
