Our first encounter was cordial. He provided a good explanation about the house and devices such as TV, AC and wifi and phone. He also provided us with the name of a friend who provided us information about Buenos Aires.

To our great surprise, he required US$200 cash deposit upon arrival, but did not provide a receipt nor did he provide any conditions under which we would receive our deposit in return. We are fairly new to AirBnB, but still found this odd as we thought AirBnB's role was that of an intermediary and that the deposit was included in our payment. Since we are new to the program we went along with this request, but felt that we had been taken advantage of as we now realize this is not a part of the deal when using AirBnB. He also requested a walk through and did not arrive on time causing us to almost miss our flight. During the walkthrough he became upset because we moved a linen from a trunk and left it on the closet, even though it was unused. The apartment is also very bare bones - it did not include plates, paper towels, dish soap, nor a garbage bin in one of the bathrooms. He also only left one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, even though we were 4 people staying for 5 days. We were under the impression that AirBnB provided a more personalized experience, but our interaction with Cameron was transactional and lacked a personal touch.
