I was looking to book a nice place in DC to escape my small studio apartment, so my partner and I decided to book Tedd’s place. We did so on a Friday and arrived the next day. But upon arrival, we realized it was way too small, plus the kitchen was not a real kitchen and it has only a Murphy bed. Instead of spending the next 2 weeks there, we cancelled immediately, notified AirBNB and Tedd. Tedd however has yet to provide any refund for the 2 weeks, forcing me to pay over $2,000 for not spending a single night at his place. He claimed hardship and even offered to refund me half the amount at one point. But he then went back on his word, and I haven’t received anything from him. After this interaction, I feel obligated to warn others not to book with this host. Tedd is able to get away with this unethical practice due to a policy change AirBNB adopted after COVID that permits hosts to refuse any refund, no matter how long the reservation may have been. I warn you not to trust this host.
