I can't find anything there, but I got a message from Airbnb saying 'Immy is waiting for your review'. I can't remember ever getting a message quite like that, although it might be because I usually do my reviews for guests immediately, but it made me think she has written a review for me.
I'm fearful of leaving a bad review for this guest but I want to and I should.
When she first booked she seemed lovely - 2 nights for her and her mum - she booked the night before so all last minute decision.
To cut a long story short she didn't arrive the first night (I was waiting in my home all day and finally got the message she wasn't coming at 9.30 pm). She said she wasn't worried about the money.
I have since discovered she used our home for a photoshoot - she's a minor celebrity in her twenties who is famous for being someone's girlfriend and posting skimpily clad photos of herself on her social media - think fake pouting lips, sticking out fake boobs and few clothes. When one of my son's friends sent him a photo of her sitting with a g-string on our dining table (who would do that? disgusting) I knew my growing concerns about her were right. There were other photos in our home and videos posted on her Instagram account.
Takeout was ordered for a lot of people and left on our kitchen bench. Nothing was washed. We also discovered two beds (one was in the 3rd bedroom and had not been made up for her and her 'mum') were wet. The duvets and mattress were both so wet (luckily it seemed to be water only!!) we had to clean the mattress covers and put the mattresses out in the sun to dry.
She lied to me repeatedly. I asked her to take the photos off social media. She hasn't. I've met people like her before and I know she has no limits on her behaviour and she could write anything in a review. Now I'm wondering if she has already written one, while I am thinking how to approach this.
I know I have to write one to warn other hosts but I just don't know what to write at this point in time.
I have 5 stars and we really go above and beyond to make our guest comfortable and now I believe she's probably about to destroy that. Seems so unfair.
