I am having my second guest, he is being annoyed from the beginning, asking very personal questions, and offering help from spiritual advice to fix inexistent things in my house. He told me he uses to exchange free room from his services. I was very polite answering that I can take care of my body in the traditional way and I am very capable of managing my house and life.
At the second day, he steps back a little bit and finds a new subject to ask, like mortgages, future personal trips, etc.
I have to be in my room and I feel very uncomfortable. He is leaving in two days.
Now, what can I said in my review?, undoubtedly he is looking to take some advantage, should I warn other hosts?
Al the other aspect as a guess, he is OK, clean and organized
A will appreciate an advice for the expert community.
Thank You

Is it something that you would just mention in private feedback to him: e.g. Respect boundaries etc
Not really 100% certain it deserves a bad review- some hosts might enjoy that type of discussion and interaction.
Difficult one...
Welcome to Airbnb!
Sometimes we have to pay the price for getting that wonderful cash. Sorry that this has happened on your second booking 😞
As for leaving a review, the truth is he has done nothing wrong. Although he is not that typical airbnb guest with whom you can pleasantly chat, he has not hurt you or your house. Don't get me wrong, he probably is that terrible passive-aggresive scammer, who lives on the edge of respectability. But he obviously knows when to pull back.
So I advise discretion when writing the review. "Guest was fine, but chatting was difficult as guest advertised his services to me 😞 "
As for being uncomfortable in your own house, you must take control.
Try to weed out guests that want to hang out. Court those who are coming to do something.
Set boundaries. Limit interaction. Maybe limit guest times in shared space.
Better luck the next time
Thank you to everyone!, I am learning!
