I booked a night to spend my birthday with some close friends.
Around 1 in the Morning I was contacted by Mr António saying we had to leave immediately because the next door neighbours were complaining about the noise. We told them that we were trying to keep everyone quiet, but that we would begin to tidy up the place and leave as soon as possible.
In the meantime, we had a chat with the neighbours who were kind enough to explain that they have been complaining about the noise in that house for the past six months and should it continue, they would call the police on Mr António for not respecting the noise regulations. They told us to keep quiet and assured us that they would not call the police, as they understood we were just celebrating a birthday, that we were almost done and that this was a one time thing (we explained that the house was an airbnb and that we had only been there for a couple of hours, and were not responsible for any of the past months’ alleged constant noise and partying).
Not long after, Mr António showed up, entered the house without warning and aggressively started shouting and pushing me and my friends, telling us to leave immediately and filming us without authorisation.
At this point, we were already leaving and getting all our stuff (we were suppose to stay the night, so we had to make new arrangements and pack all of our stuff, in addition to clean up the house) but once he started behaving aggressively we decided to wait for the police to lodge a formal complaint against him for illegal footage and aggressiveness from the host.
As per the police report, we were cooperative and were not abusive nor rude towards the host. Mr António, on the other hand, was.
