Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.58.63.1010
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Use an old save file. Have SIMs live in San Myshuno apartments. (Mine were in Culpepper Apartments) Give keys to friends and wait for the 'game night' or 'visiting the city can we crash at your place' events.
What happens when the bug occurs? Apartment keyholder visitors will constantly visit the refrigerator for milk and juice.
What do you expect to see? Apartment keyholders will get juice and milk from the refrigerator constantly during the 'game night' or 'visiting the city' events.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
This was happening pre-patch but got worse afterward. I resorted to putting the refrigerator in a pantry and locking the pantry door to guests.

Did you ever regret trusting some Sims enough to give them your apartment keys to constantly get visits from them for Milk and Juice? You can rest assured that they will no longer visit you for this purpose. I think some neighborly love is appreciated, but this went beyond the proverbial “May I have a cup of sugar?” type of situation.
Fixed in Patch 1.69.57/ 1.35
If you're still experiencing this issue, please create a new thread.
Good Luck

Maybe they think they're college students? X-D (I don't have Discover University and am on patch hiatus, but that sounds like likely behavior for that group of people. )

It was happening before the patch and continued after Nov 12's patch. I don't think it involves the University gameplay. I was not able to recreate this with the same couple living in a house in a different neighborhood. It only happened with apartment key holders during the key holder drop by events. I don't have the University EP yet. Won't until after Novemeber 20 release.

Has he had that problem with them getting drinks from the refrigerator? Mine haven't been visiting the sink, but have abused my poor refrigerator.

Well, I have not seen this problem until recently. My familly's moved into the apartment, and now their friends (with keys) constantly drink juice, water or whatever they can take from the fridge. They even sit on their knees in front of the fridge sipping.... It's weird...

Just got City Living, and I see this all the time from keyholders (who all seem to always all show up together). Everyone heads to the fridge and, at the end of the visit, I spend a couple Sim hours collecting glasses & doing the dishes.
I'll see about getting you the save file.

I have this issue as well, the Sim I've given an apartment key to drops by for game night, a surprise visit or to get ready for going out and just stands in front of the fridge and drinking juice, water or milk.
There's a "Friend's Hangout" event indicator in the top left, but it shows the title only.
The key doesn't seem to be useful as a key either since the Sim with a key can't enter a locked apartment despite having a key, and there is no option to have the apartment unlocked for the keyholder specifically.
@SimGuruNick I can provide a save file if you still need this.
