We booked our stay with Jodie at the last minute as we were on a road trip just about to start on the Great Ocean Road. Unfortunately when we arrived at Jodies no one was there to greet us and the key was left in the door of the apartment. As we were on the road we had no internet access and had not recieved the message that Jodie had sent saying she was not going to be there for the night of our stay. There was no message left in the flat either. I felt very awkward staying in the flat without the owner being there and quite ill at ease all night as the house was in quite an isolated spot.
Had I know Jodie was not going to be there I would not have chosen the flat as for me Air Bnb is all about meeting with the owners, being able to chat about nearby places of interest.
The flat however was great, very spacious.
Had Jodie been there our experience I am sure would have been completely different.
