The house was great, but do not trust the host Nikki! I paid a $1000 bond in advance, then after our stay Nikki claimed she paid a $1000 council fine on my behalf for being too noisy. It's now 13 days later and she still hasn't returned my $1000 bond, or produced any evidence of the council fine she supposedly paid on my behalf. Airbnb informed me that they no longer allow bond payments on their platform and apologised for allowing the payment to go through in the first place. However, they're yet to provide compensation for the $1000 that was blatantly stolen from me. Rather than looking after their guests, it appears Airbnb is going to let a dishonest host get away with daylight robbery.
