BUYER BEWARE / GUEST BE WARNED.
I SAW THE REVIEWS AND BOOKED THIS PLACE BECAUSE ITS CLOSE TO THE AIRPORT. IF YOU WANT A FRONT ROW TICKET TO THE JERRY SPRINGER SHOW ??? I know exactly how much it will cost you to try sleep through the audition?. SHAME ON THE HOST FOR BEING - Greedy. Unfair. Entitled. THIS WAS A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE AND AFTER DAYS OF PERSONAL DEBATE ON WHETHER TO WRITE A REVIEW AT ALL, I think other unsuspecting guests should know what they might run up against.
Its true, sometimes the right thing to do is not the easy thing to do. This host was completely WRONG and they know it. There is a level noise that is unacceptable --- period! It does not matter if the host has control over it or not. Yes, their Airbnb listing mentioned child / kids playing, laughing, loud noises any child or a group of kids would make. I understand, I have children this age myself. This household exceeded an acceptable level of noise under any circumstance and for a prolonged period of time and they knew this true. I ASKED FOR A SMALL REFUND FOR A BIG INCONVENIENCE. IT WAS LATE AND THEN ALSO IN THE NEXT MORNING, THENOISE STARTED AGAIN. I was the position to order another uber and hopefully find a new place to go. I CAME BY UBER ON MY WAY OUT OF TOWN. This listing is close to the airport.
Airbnb Customer did nothing to assist me. I made an audio of an adult trading expletives with a 10 year old boy. This went on for quite some time. HOW LONG? Off and on for hours. Everyone is entitled to a bad day or two, a bad week and sometimes we have bad months. We are all human. But when you a run hospitality business and your bad day effects the quality of guests rest time for HOURS and their ability to simply have some peace, the host needs to accept that responsibility is theirs and ONLY THEIRS to make it right.
A grown man yelling at his son like that is disgraceful and I am sorry, but no one listening to this horrible display would think differently. In fact, because of the sensitive situation given one party's condition , others would expect parents to be especially cautious about the words used because WORDS MATTER. They should have done the right thing and reimbursed the small amount I asked for. NO REASON IN THE WORLD TO SPEAK THIS WAY TO ANY ADULT, LET ALONE A CHILD LIKE THIS, ESPECIALLY IF THE CHILD DOES NOT KNOW BETTER. But I digress.
This daythe hosts decided to hide behind their child and when it fact it was the only adult in the room at the time doing the most damage. SHAME ON YOU BOTH! SHAME YOUR HUSBAND FOR CURSING AT HIS SON OFF AND ON FOR HOURS AND SHAME ON YOU THE MOTHER FOR PRETENDING YOU HAVE ANY RIGHT TO DEFEND HIS POOR BEHAVIOR AND IN DOING SO, TELL ME IT WOULD BE AGAINST YOUR RIGHTS TO PENALIZE YOUR FAMILY FINANCIALLY BY ACCEPTING LESS FOR THE ROOM BECAUSE YOUR CHILD WAS MAKING A LOT OF NOISE . WHAT KIND OF SILLY, SENSELESS, GREEDY, IRRESPONSIBLE CRAP JUSTIFICATION FOR TAKING MY MONEY AND NOT STOPPING THE NOISE.
This was NEVER about a child making noise, its about adults failing to do the right thing to make bad situation better for a guest. I sure hope this is a one off situation. BUYER BEWARE!
