Invasion of privacy - when is it vital to tell a guest they’re doing something dangerous?

[Sarah284]

Hi everyone!

I’m Sarah Rayner. 

In England I’m quite well known. 

I am a professional writer and love debating.

Currently legislation is going through parliament clamping down on fake online reviews. 

As a rule of thumb, we won’t take bookings for people unless they have 100 good reviews. 

But we have been caught out by one guest, and we were lured into letting her stay because she had a dog, and promised her dog was ‘well behaved’.

It out she was a sex worker. She was the worst guest we’ve ever had, and I think she’s no longer advertising herself on Airbnb.

She was unbelievably rude, and when I turned up early to clean, she made me wait in the car for two hours! 

She complained there were too many books for sale in her room. I’m a professional writer though, so I like to give my books away. 

It costs money to do giveaways and no one can trick me, or that’s what I thought… 

But she left used condoms and a massage toy. Proving some women will stop at nothing to get a good online review!
