How i got a parking ticket due to my host:
I have chosen to stay at John O'Mahony room because he offered free parking. When we arrived at the address his wife Masha gave us a expired parking permit and said that they will give us a valid one, but that never happened. To make things short i got a parking ticket of 130 pounds for parking without a parking permit.
The host promised to pay but every time i asked him about proof of payment he accused me of being disrespectful.
On the 23.09.2015 in our conversation he confirmed of paying but failed to give me proof.
On the 29.09.2015 (the last day the ticket could be paid half 65pound) i have called the parking department and they said the ticket was not paid. I have confronted him and he admitted of lying... he continued to accuse me and he told me that because i have been disrespectful to him I have to pay my ticket.

I have the full conversation available and this problem is on review by airbnb support.

All this time he accused me of being responsible for the ticket, but things are clear on paper ... the ticket is due to a invalid parking permit ... he could have been honest from the start... he also accused me of parking not on the premise but i have asked explicitly his wife if the car is parked correct and she said all is ok.

If she considered i have parked wrong she could have informed me.

All in all I am disappointed of the way he managed this problem.

He should understand that lies bring more lies, and the truth always comes out.

For all what I have written in this review i have proof.

The positive:
Masha, the wife of John, on our stay was a very good host, she advised us what to visit and also gave us umbrellas.

I consider that the problem with the parking ticket could have been very easy to resolve, it could have been a proof of high moral values, but John complicated it and disappointed us.
