Hurricane Dorian

Hi, i wondered what to do in this situation but my guests would like to leave early from my Florida house as the hurricane is coming in and have requested a refund of the last two days via Airbnb. This has not happened before so i wondered if i just accept the refund as a good host or reject it as they can claim on their insurance and i should not be the one losing the money? I am concerned if i do not refund them that they will leave bad feedback and i have worked hard to achieve good feedback i don't want it ruined over this?

@Anthony847  Direct the guest to Air BNB who will probably evoke the extenuating circumstances policy and refund the money.  Do you really want guests while you ride out a possible category 4 hurricane?  I doubt they have insurance.  And yes, you will bear the financial loss 😛   Take care of yourselves and be safe.

Having Airbnb canceled my paying guests they have now asked me to open up my home to guests for free.  Really?

@Nicky109  Now THAT  is truly senseless and unbelievably rude.
