I am with Airbnb for over 10yrs as a guest in places all over the world &
a host in London & in Rio de Janeiro.
I have never felt so misjudged & badly treated by a host like this one before.
I’m not a tourist, I host 2 big flats in Rio, so I was exhausted, in need of a place to rest alone & in peace, so
I booked his place for 2 nights &
2 people, in case my son or a friend would need to stay with me.
He did confirm, but then refused to have me staying, on the grounds that I could not give him the exact name of the second person.
I fully understand the concerns we all have being hosts, but treating a middle aged lady, who is also a long time host & guest in such nasty way,
makes one wonders about his true
intentions & quality of hosting on Airbnb.
