Justin was there to meet me at check-in, let's say he's a VERY involved host. Showed me around the place, and it was a bit hard to get rid of him after check-in, and I needed to get to a rehearsal dinner. All was fine, as I was barely at the house all weekend. The morning of check out, Justin showed up knocking the door at ten minutes till 11 AM with a cleaning crew and the next set of guests ready to move in!

It did look bad, I had almost the entire wedding party meeting up at the house for coffee, and to pick us up for the Sunday wedding BBQ. We grabbed our stuff and left. Justin did a walkthrough, and told me "everything looked fine."

I get a message about 15 minutes later saying that I had exceeded capacity (his number started at 12), and that a futon was damaged. I replied that we were meeting up, and that I would be happy to pay for reasonable repairs to the ikea looking futon in the living room. The futon did crack when we used it. It did look like it had been repaired previously, but it did break while we were using it. OUR BAD!

I get a bill for $500 through AirBNB, which I think is the maximum he can bill for (His number of his counted guests increases to 15). I reply with a request for a itemized damage bill, and that I'm happy for a reasonable repair, but $500 is a tad unreasonable in my opinion. Justin refused to provide a statement or estimate and escalates the complaint.

I also learn that there are cameras recording the guests in the house, and he is going to review the footage.

Justin then claims that I was never a tenant, and that I have no right to a itemized statement for the $500 charges, to which I reply that acting as a hotelier involves many things that were not provided at the house, and that I thought asking for a statement justifying charges was prudent and reasonable.

I get a reply threatening me with lawyers and such. I even get a "game on brother."

In such, if you're going to be a perfect guest this is host for you. If anything minor goes wrong, even if you try and be reasonable about the situation, this is not the place or host for you.
