I have an expression I've used for 30+ years
"fish and company stink after 3 days"

We did a lot of visiting my folks (5-6 hours away from us) when they were alive. We were dirt poor back then so we stayed in the guest bedroom. Day one was arrive late afternoon. Dinner and catch up on news. Day two we have a great time and dinner out. Day three we have to look for things to say. Day four is out the door very early in the morning. Mom was always busy doing things and never sat still but would complain if I dared call or visit a friend we knew (used to live in that town).

The folks have been gone many years. I miss them but don't miss the travel and guilt trip from mom because we didn't stay for a week.
