AirBnB is a disaster. Absolutely no interest in trying it again.
Agreed, the one and only time I tried airbnb I was fucking banned from the platform (??). They flagged my IP address or something, because every time I try to make a new account they ban it a few days later.
We booked a place that said it was a "1 bedroom apartment" but really it was a 2 bedroom apartment that a young couple was leasing, they slept in 1 bedroom and had the rest of the place listed on the app. Landlord definitely had no idea what was going on. So we were mislead. On top of that, the couple STAYED in the house the entire time with us and they were drunk and yelling at each other and at one point they got into a physical altercation.
We ended up calling airbnb right there, it took 30 mins just to get to an actual human, and all they offered was a $150 credit for our next rental which is useless. We disputed the charge on our CC. The next day, I got a notification saying my account was closed for "violating the TOS" lol
fucking trash app, its one of the few tech companies that I genuinely feel should be shut down or regulated into the ground. They've done so much damage to urban/metro housing markets and they also let their hosts get away with racial discrimination
