In horror over a review. What should I do. I left the following for AirBnB

I need your help here. I had a guest that has made a review that is very poor. I'm Not Surprised. They showed up very late and went right to the room. There was very little conversation with these two single people other then what I started. I just thought they were city folks with a city attitude.
My ad says this is a shared space. If these single people needed more privacy in the bedroom for any kind of activities, sexual or not, I think they should not have selected a shared space ad.
They complained they could not have conversation. They are upstairs I am downstairs. There is less privacy in a restaurant where they would have conversations. What conversation could they possibly have engaged in that they were afraid to have in the room? Save for loud noises in sex.
The pictures of my home clearly show the type of room available, see for yourself. It is a 2 story room in a Cape Home, common in our area. This is an official bedroom, approved by the town and taxed as one, not as an attic. I take deep offense to their comment that they were given an attic to sleep in.
I take deep offense to the suggestion that their valuables were not safe. Of all the people who have stayed with me no one has ever made such a horrible accusation. Who takes hi ticket valuables on a trip in the first place. Tablets or phones I understand. They told me they had that. I have had folks here with tons of computer equipment nothing was lost or stolen. I clean the rooms once a day. Do you really think I would steal from them. How awful.
This is a home I live in. Of course I am going to be there all the time. Which is also hard to understand such a statement considering I do go out! I shop, go to church, which these people were told. I take offense to this.
Plus this couple checked in very late, left early and came back late each day. They avoided me to the extent they would not even take coffee from me.
I repeatedly asked them if every thing was alright. Yes, yes I was told.
I never leave a bad review because I feel everyone has problems and deserve kindness. But this is outrageous, how insulating. Next time I will be more honest in my review. I would say if you want a two faced couple, let them stay with you.
I expect AirBnB to remove this review immediately.
