Airbnb can try to charge his card he had on file. They can give you documented support for court but this isn't their property. It is yours. They have no legal right to remove him. They are a means of a booking agent. That's it. That's why Airbnb shouldn't try to be so controlling over people's lives and their rentals. They ultimately decide what you get, if you get payment, or whether you should get paid for damages. They make a lot of really poor decisions that they really need to take a step away from. When people really need them, they are worthless in the very situations they made themselves appear so powerful. If you have proof he is dangerous or a threat to your safety, go file a temporary retraining order. If you don't have proof, get it. Change the locks. Pack his stuff in garbage bags. Wait for him to show. He will call the police. Give the restraining order to the police. They will have to serve him the papers and he will have to leave immediately. OR... All he has is an Airbnb contract he agreed to. The purpose of your rental space is for temporary occupancy. Have a friend book on Airbnb. Have them check in and stay in the rental. They now have the legal right to be there. Pack his stuff and set it aside outside. He's overstayed his time. Your friend now has proof he is supposed to be there and has a receipt of actual payment. Sorry had to clean and prepare the rental for your next legally contracted and paid Airbnb guest. He probably won't want to share a room with your "guy friend" who intimidates him anyway. OR.. If his bed has bedbugs, remove the bed and say it's a health liability and the room has to be professionally fumigated. He will need to leave. Charge him for fumigation, removal of furniture, and loss of income. You're going to have to be creative, a landlord from hell, and make the law work for you. Make him hate his life.
