Dirty habits

[Ian611]

Hi Hosts,
Hopefully things are getting better out there for us all.

 I would like your views on my story, I recently had a guy with his workmates staying Monday to Friday for 4 weeks recently,they were reasonably good at cleaning  but every time I went to clean up for them coming back I was finding tobacco scattered over work surfaces and the floor,this didn’t really bother me as there was no signs of them smoking inside.The worst thing that put me off was the last week they stayed I found 3 half full cans of beer with a liquid of some description, make up your own mind what it was,under the bunk beds.Disgusting.

The other thing was the guest that rented marked me down every week for value for money,why bother coming back if he doesn’t like the price.
He seems to be staying at other places round the area while he has the work at the building site.He hasn’t had any bad reviews but nothing great. I reviewed him and only put things like he was happy with my place as it was close for him. I would like to say in the final review about what I find about their habits but I am worried about him coming round and possibly causing property damage when I am not there as he rents in areas not far away from our place. Am I worrying for nothing.Should I just give him low marks in his profile instead?

@Ian611, where you get to respond in the review, would you recommend/ host again - ensure you choose “NO.”

[Ian611]

Cathie19. That’s what I did, hopefully  it will block  him.

No it won't but you can ask Airbnb to do that. @Ian611

@Cathie19. I contacted abb and it was suggested I report the person and in turn they can’t send a booking request ,hopefully they won’t see my listing either,it would be good if they couldn’t.The guest doesn’t know I reported them either I was told.

can we block some guests now? It was possible, then it wasn't, I wonder how is it now

[Ian611]

Brands-and-silvia0. I wish we could,maybe if we hit the NO button to the  question in the review,would you host this guest again, I will be saying no.

@Ian611  In order for someone to get a notification that you have responded to them, you need to tag them, as I did here with you.

To tag someone, hit the @ symbol, and a box with a list of 5 posters on the thread appears. Click on the name you are responding to and it will autofill in the message box. 

If you don't find the name in that first box, type it in after the @ and another box will pop up with that name, which you then click on.

@Sarah977 ,that’s where I was going wrong,thanks for the info.lol

@Ian611  Hey, I had no idea how to do that either when I first joined this forum and someone explained it to me, so just passing it on 🙂

@Sarah977 . I am not on the forum often, I had forgotten to put the @symbol , I wondered why it didn’t tag the person I was answering.
