We decided to use Air Bnb for a trip to Oakland to attend my daughter’s orientation for a university, so I decided to start looking at reviews of some of the houses in the area. I decided to choose this one, the location was about 20 minutes away from the University, I thought, how perfect! Check in time was at 4:00, but I informed the owner my family and I will be arriving on Friday between 6:00-6:30 pm, since we were driving up from Los Angeles. We arrived at 6:30, parked and walked up the stairs to the front door to get the key from where it was left for me. No Key! We were looking around for it, thinking I may have misread the email for location. All of a sudden a lady opens the door, so I was startled. I introduced myself and said I was there to rent the house for the weekend. The lady looked puzzled and informed me she was told that we wouldn’t be arriving until 9:00 pm, and that she wasn’t done cleaning the house yet. We decided to wait outside until she was finished, she rushed around trying to finish as soon as she could, and it took maybe a total of 35 minutes. Our stay was pleasant. The house was very cozy and has an excellent view of the city. The house could have been a little tidier, but the lady was in a rush, so I understand. It was just a miscommunication. I figured we were going to be out and about anyway and just pretty much just use it for sleeping, so why make a big deal about it? The weekend turned out very good and had a good time. We left early Sunday morning at 7:30 am, left the key per the instructions and headed home. I get a phone call Sunday evening from the owner of the house. I seriously thought she was calling me to thank me for staying and ask how it all went. Boy was I wrong!! She accused us of scratching her dining room table. I was taken aback to say the least. She sent me an up close picture of the scratch, and this was a big scratch according to the picture, this scratch looked like it had been done intentionally. I told her, that we did not scratch her table. I asked her to send a picture of the whole table showing exactly the location of the scratch since there were 4 place mats in front of each chair and 3 large candles in candle holders in the center of the table. I also asked her when was the last time she actually inspected the house and table personally. She failed to send the picture and answer my question. We go back and forth via message through Air Bnb a few times. The next morning I receive a message stating I owe $800 to fix the table. Ok, now I really...
