Okay so I never have the time or energy to leave a review so just let this sentence alone be a warning.
This was by far the worst AirBnb experience I’ve ever had. I felt like I was a criminal the whole time I was there. Just to be transparent and honest I will admit I did not read her gate instructions all the way through, that part was on me. But I was always very compliant to whatever the host told me because it’s her house. She accused me of trying to have a party and talked to me like I was a child or was going to harm her family
I was not going to have a party there. My lake side ( the lake is 10 min away ) birthday was cancelled due to rain and I’m SO SORRY that I wanted somewhere for THREE people to go while figure out our next plans. Even in her very detailed description she said you can have 4 adults over at a time during the day. So I don’t understand what the problem was.
I couldn’t even unload my car without being harassed by the host and being accused of having a “party” She saw that I was bringing blankets inside and immediately assumed I was going to turn her house into House Party 2 or something. I was always nice and compliant to her requests and she always spoke to me with animosity.
It really killed my mood for my whole stay ( my birthday by the way ). Like I understand that I did not read the gate instructions but that’s the only thing did wrong and I felt like I was a criminal and unwelcome in a place I PAID FOR. She even accused me of breaking her gate after she just drove inside 5 seconds prior.
This whole thing is ridiculous.
1. If your gate is that sensitive just don’t let it be for public use instead yelling at everyone.
2. Don’t assume someone is having a party and treat them like a child for having blankets and brining three people with them during the day. Like you live near a lake and it’s raining just put two and two together.
3. If you are SO CONCERNED. About your daughters safety I don’t know maybe don’t have RANDOM STRANGERS living a foot away from her!
You can click on my profile and see that another host who I stayed with for a week left me a nice review and wants have me back so clearly the problem isn’t me.
