Ysk (which is not even his real name; it makes you wonder what kind of person uses a fake name on their profile) is quite simply a bully. The experience was fairly harmless to begin with - a few unfriendly comments here and there, but I decided not to take it personally and assumed that's just how some people are. The room was clean and had everything I needed, but it was a little unsettling as there are no windows to the outside (except a little window from the room to the staircase) - it's completely underground. Before I booked the room, I asked whether there is a possibility of using the fridge for a couple of small things (I figured, if this is an issue at all, I will find another room where I can use one freely). I was told this was fine, however when I arrived and asked again there was some hesitation and Ysk made it clear that he is not overly happy with me using the fridge after all (but I could, if I really had to). I respected this and decided not to use it - this seemed easier than having to face Ysk and his unfriendly demeanour again. The room description clearly stated that 'privacy is assured', however it didn't feel very private. Ysk came down on a couple of occasions during the very short time I was there, with absolutely no prior warning. The window to the staircase meant that he could look into my room each time, which made it even more uncomfortable. On the second day, a friend helped me carry some shopping back to the room. There was absolutely nothing in the house rules to suggest that visitors are banned or that they aren't allowed to come in. I am generally very respectable and wasn't planning on 'hanging out' with strangers in the room (which is what I was accused of) - my friend simply helped me carry some shopping back and sat on my bed for a short time while I sorted some things out. Ysk came downstairs and began to be very rude, saying that visitors are absolutely not allowed and that I should have checked with him first. I apologised and told Ysk that we would be leaving shortly. Five minutes later, he came back to the top of the stairs and started being aggressive, saying that my friend needs to leave immediately. My friend left, but we were both shocked by the sudden aggression. This is when I felt scared for the first time - I was in a very vulnerable position with all my things in the room, and virtually no way to escape if something was to happen. Ysk came to the top of the stairs again and started having another go at me saying that what I did was completely unacceptable, that he will report me and that my behaviour is not on. He deliberately waited until my friend had left to...
