Bay not only has missing amenities from her listing, the space is also filthy, and when my partner and I were laying in bed, she went around the back of the “private” space she rented out and pressed her face against the glass door to peek inside. My partner and I stared back at her and she was startled and proceeded to “conduct maintenance” on the hot tub. I messaged her immediately when I saw that we startled her and received messages that she thought we were out. Regardless, she had an opportunity to knock on the front door as well as the back door, and she chose to press her face into the glass screen to look at us. She should not have even been in the back door / area AT ALL since that is the ONLY shower and it IS NOT covered. She went to the front of the space and knocked, and I did NOT let her in and said I wanted to communicate via the app. Throughout the stay, she insisted we text her directly. Bay even let us know ahead of time when gardeners would be in the back, I don’t know why this was an “exception” …had we not saw her, would she even tell us that she was “re-chemicalizing” the hot tub and not to go in? None of this adds up.
IF Bay were male, I would’ve immediately packed up my things and left but everything in the area was already sold out. My partner and I felt uncomfortable to shower or use the hot tub, and there was no way to cover the door. We were afraid of retaliation from the host and every time we left and returned to the location, she was watching and waiting for us since the “private” space is directly facing her doors/windows.
