They expected to be given gifts...it was part of Ancient Greek culture to give gifts to your guests...I think.
Xenia was the name of the rule of hospitality that the Ancient Greeks believed in. Not following Xenia meant that you were not being a good citizen.

Ancient Greeks believed they must show 'xenia' in order not to dis-please the gods, therefore people treated strangers very well, with food, water and general hospitality. Polythemus and the other cyclops' were much unlike other greek beings as they were not god-fearing, therefore not caring about showing xenia to Odysseus and his men. Obviously Odysseus did not kow this and presumed they would have a warm reception.
what ever they/you are comfortable in, but a word of warning, if you dress trashy, expect to be treated as such, just like if you dress professional you could expect to be treated accordingly.
