Extremely disappointing experience. I was booked for two nights at Eric’s house and had to leave after one horrible night. My only thought on my host’s behavior was that something terrible had happened in the afternoon just prior to my arrival that I am unaware of (serious accident, death in family or similar)…I had some difficulty gaining entry to the host’s home after I had already gotten in once before. Apparently I transposed the door lock combination number and it would not open. So I called Eric as all previous information I had from him said to call if I had any problems. This was in the “Welcome” book in my room as well as in the email confirmation at the time of booking. Realizing it was now 11:45 or so, I apologized for calling him and kept the call short (FYI I was unable to access the email w/ lock info. from my phone.) When Eric arrived back to the house about 15 minutes after my call about the combination, I stuck my head out of my room to say hello and apologize again – he immediately began yelling/lecturing me for contacting him when I couldn't get in. He also proceeded to lecture me about how I shouldn't call him, or anyone, at 11:45pm. I was reminded that he was opening his home up to a “stranger” and I was told that “ALL information about my stay had been provided and that he made an exception to even "let" me stay there.” In my opinion he completely over reacted to the call I made and I was then made to feel absolutely unwelcome. I was really looking forward to my stay there even though I could have stayed at a hotel for less money and been closer to where I wanted to be. I have an appreciation for historic restoration and preservation and was interested in possibly hearing about the renovation of Eric’s row house, other restorations he might be involved in and about the original art on the walls. I ended up calling AirBnB a little after midnight when Eric was done going off on me for assistance in finding out what my options were as far as getting some money back so I could move to a hotel the next day and then I had had to research hotels and rates and book something. This after driving seven hours mostly in the pouring rain when all I wanted to do was go to sleep.
