This is the first time I have ever left an Airbnb early. We had planned to stay three nights but ended up only staying one. There were so many unexpected issues.
The neighborhood was sketchy. There were no window coverings on either of the bathroom windows, and also no shower curtain in the main en-suite, which meant someone could potentially watch you shower from the street. The fridge was dirty and full of half-eaten food. One of the bedrooms stank of pot. The light switch did not control the ceiling light, it had to be manually switched on/off via its power cord in the corner of the room. The beds had fitted sheets on them, but no flat/top sheets. The door from the main bedroom to the bathroom would not close. There was little communication from the host other than a handwritten note with some rules on it in the kitchen. The home felt like someone’s family home that they vacated in a rush so we could stay there - even though we didn’t check in until 10 pm and there had been plenty of time for cleaning.
I did appreciate the host giving me a partial refund on the remaining nights we did not stay.
