I booked with “K” for the Labor Day weekend. At the time of the booking I read “K’s” house rules of no parties or events. I messaged her and let her know my intentions for the house was for my husband, myself, daughter and two of her friends to stay there. We lived locally and wanted to have a bbq with a few of my local family members to come over just for the day to swim and eat. I let her know we were not big party people and would be sure to clean up after. I let her know if this was not ok to please decline my reservation. She did not message me back but did accept my reservation. The day of check in I still had not received the code to get in. Check in was at 4pm I messaged her at 4:15 that we were ready to check in please send me the instructions. Instead almost an hour later I received a cancellation email! I sent her a message let her know how unprofessional this was and how she spoiled my daughter’s birthday. All I received back from her was an insincere apology claiming a scheduling issue! She did refund my money but I have no access to the money till the bank clears it so meanwhile I’m out almost $400 and no place to stay on the very busy holiday weekend! We were not initially even able to post a review because she cancelled so we had to reach out and report to AirBNB her behavior so at the minimal be able to post a review. This should be unacceptable to do to people the day of the reservation and after the time of check in!!! I encourage everyone not to book with this unreliable host. I would understand if it was an emergency not a “scheduling issue”!
