There were bedbugs! After our second night, my partner was covered in bedbug bites on his arms, chest, and legs. We had to completely change our trip to take all of our clothes to get laundered with a bedbug treatment, were without clothes for a night so had to go buy clothes to hold us over and had to find a hotel to stay in. I asked Dan for a full refund, he didn’t provide it. He gave empty apologies, offered a cleaning service to come by (which will not do anything for a bedbugs infestation!), and directed me to follow up with Airbnb, which I think is despicable given what we’re going through due to his place. Dan had the power to refund us and he didn’t.
We’ve had to buy construction bags to put our stuff in to contain them, had to buy clothes for the night, and are having to take extra measures to ensure we don’t bring bedbugs home (bedbug resistance mattress pads, process to clean our luggage).
On top of that, the place wasn’t cleaned well notably, the bathrooms are ridiculously small, and it’s my biggest regret yet with renting someone else’s place. I’ve never been exposed to bedbugs before and was on this trip to find housing before school and it’s been absolutely dreadful.
