I stayed at Samantha’s from the 7th of March until the 25th. Like all bookings via providers like Airbnb, a very important factor are the reviews; and hers are stellar. When I first moved in I was very pleased to find out that I was provided with a bigger and more spacious room instead of the loft that I had previously arranged for (no extra cost of course). Additionally, Samantha was very friendly and keen on giving me local recommendations (food, etc.). If things have ended there, my review would be exceptional as well; but unfortunately, things turned out differently. The first sign of hostility I was greeted with was on the 12th of March. I asked a very reasonable question, in my opinion, – whether she owned the property or not. Considering the fact that I stayed there for an excess of three weeks, it makes sense to ask that question. All I received as a response is “it is none of your business”, and she stormed off. I was very puzzled by her response but decided to ignore it and not ponder my thoughts upon it. It was the tone of her voice as well and body language that made me feel as if I was asking such a horrible question. But things got much worse. On the 14th I asked her if I can have two close friends of mine stay overnight on the 16th and 17th. She was very clear that I was not allowed to do so, and I was very understanding of the matter without bringing up again. On the 17th I invited my friends (three of them) over at the apartment as the weather had changed drastically overnight in the UK (-2 degrees Celsius and plenty of snow). It would make sense to stay indoors for a couple of hours in the afternoon before attending a friend’s party. Samantha saw my friends as we entered the premises and reminded me via text the rules of the house about overnight visitors. I reassured her and made sure that we will only stay for a couple of hours. A conclusion in which both of us seemed ok with at the time. At around 20:00, two of my mates went for a cigarette outdoors. To do so, they had to go down the stairs (communal space). This made her uncomfortable and decided to act upon – which I wouldn’t have an issue with if it was done in a civilised manner. She proceeded to call out my name and spoke to me very aggressively (at least it was on private and not in front of my friends). She started shouting, yelling at me to get rid of them this instant, and threatening me that she will call Airbnb to report me. I was startled, no idea what had gotten into her. I felt so bad about my action (which I had done nothing wrong, to begin with) and went upstairs. After thinking about it for a minute, I realised that she...
