Appalling host , after searching Airbnb for a 2 bed entire home for 2 guest this listing comes up. It is advertised - In the TITLES! - as “ 2 bedroom” “entire place” for 2 guests - but then somewhere in the long description it contrdicts this and says the second bedroom will only be opened if booked for 3 guests !
I admit the small error of skimming through the long winded description- but should one expect the description to not be what is advertised ? Should it contradict what the result of my search ( for 2 guests / 2 bedrooms ) comes up with ?
This would be the same as me seeing a van advertised for sale but somehow in the description it’s actually a car !
I saw all the pictures - bedroom 1 and 2 . Read the words “entire home “ 2 bedrooms “ in the title . I had put in 2 guest so I was satisfied with the listing for our needs and booked it . We checked in the place and found the 2nd bedroom locked !
I immediately messaged the host who simply blamed me for the mistake and took no responsibility for a completely misleading listing . His then said “ there’s nothing we can do “ only then 2 mins later in a messages said “ if you pay for a 3rd (non existent) guest I will open the 2nd bedroom” .
I had to sleep on a sofa for 4 nights as he was too stubborn to just admit the listing is totally wrong and open the 2nd bedroom. He actually admitted the listing isn’t accurate in explanation but wouldn’t budge and kept arguing even saying he’s “ disappointed “ in me . I’m sure his review/ response to my profile will be “ the guest accepted the description “ with no responsibility for advertising a 2 bed entire place for 2 guests - which is basically a lie !
The flat place is clean( but small ) and in a very good area . But I wouldn’t book here because if anything his wrong you may get no sympathy from a terrible uncaring host .
