Possible to force Airbnb and host to be correct From Gerard Braas Subject: Airbnb rental in Dubrovnik with host Vesna & Martin Apartment SunSet Dubrovnik+FREE PARKING & WIFI Within a few hours after my review has been posted, I received a message from Airbnb that the full €79,50 was going to be refund. Today, Aplil 30th 2024 in the early afternoon, the money was back on my creditcard account. Thanks for your help. The next steps for me are: look how to introduce a claim with the relevant authorities at the European Union. Then analizę how to start a class action against Airbnb Date of experience: April 03, 2024

Please do not use Airbnb if you're… Please do not use Airbnb if you're planning to travel next month or later. Because if you get sick or the plane delay or you change your mind... the house owners will keep half of your money. Just get a hotel or condo or use Airbnb when you're there at your destination.

Host suddenly requested deposit, Airbnb DONT CARE The host manager suddenly asked for a cash deposit when we just arrived. This was not stated anywhere in the listing. When we refused, the manager became agressive and being very rude claiming they have lawyer bla bla bla. I was not interested in staying with them anymore as it's not as described in listing and the service super poor. So I opened a case with Aribnb who kept closing it and not letting me to cancel the stay for a refund. Worst holiday ever. Airbnb only cares the monies but not their policy Or srvice provided by the hosts! I'd now only book through hotels or resorts who would actually provide a genuine customer service than those host who are hostile to guests, worrying guests going to break or take away their 'assest' in the property. It only makes guests' stay very uncomfortable and ruining our holiday. For hosts who can't afford the risk to let out the property, just don't then. (BTW, At the last day of the stay, the host 'transferred' us our deposit, and sent us a screenshot and claimed the money will be back to our bank in the next few days. Waited for a week and nothing appeared, so I chased him Daily until he actually made the transfer. FULL OF SCAMMERS on airbnb!!)

Run quickly and get a hotel instead My recent stay looked nothing like the photos. It was major trickery and the room wasn't even the same size, bedding, or room. There were old rough sheets on the beds. Not what I paid for. I shared photos with Airbnb and was told I could get a refund and leave. So I booked a hotel and left the next day. Airbnb didn't keep their word. They said they had to support the host who didn't want to give a refund. Thank goodness my credit card company saw the photos and communication with Airbnb and refunded me

You cannot rely on Airbnb reviews - stick to other boking sires! We recently had an awful experience with a property booked through Airbnb. In hindsight the hosts company IStay Liverpool are clearly running a scam offering properties they have no control then moving you on the day of the booking based on spurious grounds. There are numerous reviews to this effect but the way the Airbnb review system works no one can place a review to this effect unless the host allows it? What sort of review system is that - complete joke!
