A rant about Airbnb rants

( www.reddit.com )

A rant about Airbnb rants I’m tired of reading them. You had a bad Airbnb experience. Bummer. It happens. Please stop posting about it. Unless it’s an epic story of double-booking with a furry group or finding a dead body in a closet, it’s already been told. I just read a post where the main complaint was the unit didn’t have any windows. Did you not look at the photos?!…

( www.reddit.com )

Gas Leak in Airbnb… Reimbursement Request We showed up last night at 3 AM at our Airbnb (flight delays – thanks worldwide IT outage). This is in Benton Harbor Michigan, . Upon arrival, the place absolutely REEKED, but we didn’t know exactly what caused it. It wasn’t necessarily a gas smell, more a rotten smell like something had died. 2 of the 4 in our party were so tired they just…

Is my Airbnb host a scammer?

( www.reddit.com )

Is my Airbnb host a scammer? I booked this apartment through Airbnb a few weeks ago; the stay is next week. They have good reviews and I’ve exchanged several messages with the host through the Airbnb app. He’s been responsive to my questions before and after booking. Then today he messages me on What’s App, suggesting that I can save 250 pounds by cancelling through Airbnb…

Airbnb I stayed in, Bath, UK.

( www.reddit.com )

Airbnb I stayed in, Bath, UK. Old coach house brought up to date with exposed natural Bath Stone and hemispherical ceiling shape intact. The lighting strips which I’m not normally a fan of really elevated the space and gave it a sense of grandeur. Scandi finishes, stainless steel kitchen finishes made it feel like a professional kitchen (roughly four metre peninsula with upl…

Airbnb host lying about “damages” because I didn’t stay longer

( www.reddit.com )

Airbnb host lying about “damages” because I didn’t stay longer I told the host I originally intended to stay close to 3 months, booking a week at a time, but only stayed 1 month. I let them know before I checked out I was leaving. I have a travel job so I’m sure they just saw $$$. Well now they’re claiming a high price point for “damages.” Example: $47 worth of damages for 6 wash clothes and 2 hand towels. …

Airbnb Warning

( www.reddit.com )

Airbnb Warning Have used AirBnb for years, always opting for Airbnb over hotels. Seldom ever had any issues, but if I did support was quick and fair! Have probably stayed at close to 100 airbnbs! Posting a warning as support has gone significantly downhill, and Airbnb is not here to support you! If you take anything away from this: IF you use AirBnb AT ALL pl…

LPT: If you’re traveling to a new city and staying in a hotel, airbnb, etc. Check Google Maps around that area to see if there is major road construction going on. I’m traveling for work, staying in a really nice hotel, but they are tearing up the street right outside and it’s nothing but jackhammers and heavy equipment starring at 8am. submitted by /u/amorri19

First bad experience with Airbnb

( www.reddit.com )

First bad experience with Airbnb I’ve never had a bad experience with Airbnb, up until recently. Well, there was always the usual deception from when an accomodation that looks great in pictures turns out to be actually really mediocre, but my last experience makes me wonder if I really want to keep booking with them. Without further ado, here’s the story. I’m leaving out some …

Finally done with Airbnb after a decade of amazing experiences

( www.reddit.com )

Finally done with Airbnb after a decade of amazing experiences I booked an Airbnb for my girlfriend and I for a month, four days in advance. I accidentally put in 1 guest instead of 2 as 99% of the time there is no difference in charge. As I go to add a guest after I booked, I find that an additional guest is $2000 more a month. Mind you, this is to literally share a double bed. The initial price was $3000,…
