I left this listing just a few minutes after checking in. As I messaged to Ingrid before leaving, "This is a bit more secluded and rustic than I anticipated. I have come to spend time with friends . . . We have lots of activities planned, and I don't think I will feel comfortable returning late at night."
I have been an Airbnb member for more than 10 years, and have stayed at locations across the U.S., and also in Tokyo, Nassau, and several locations in Jamaica. Had Ingrid's place been my first experience years ago, I never would have used Airbnb again. I lost more than $600 by cancelling this stay on check-in day, but it was more important to me to spend three
nights in a neighborhood that was not run down, and in a home where I would feel safe.
