What are your red flags when it comes to guests?

Hi,

I am a brand new host. I have been fairly lucky in not having any issues with guests yet.... but being so new I was wondering what are red flags for more experienced hosts? What is usually something you see on a persons profile that leads to reject them?

Red flags...

 

I once had a guest tell me that they wanted to book one room, but if we wouldn't let her adolecent daughter and her boyfriend stay in the other room, then we could just forget it.  It was the way it was worded, as if asking for a fight... 

OK, I forgot it...

 

another time the photo was of a beer can, and a "Yo, Yo, wanna stay..."

 

uh, No, no...

בדרך כלל יש לי אורחים מעולים. פעם היו אצלי שבועים ואחכ בקשו ממנו שני דולר החזר כי לא היה לחם לארוחת בוקר..... אלה אורחים שבמשך חודשים שאלו אותי כל יום לפחות שלוש שאלות.
