Hi
I decided to join the conversation because I've just had two new, expensive towels stolen. When I asked the guest if they had taken the towels by mistake, they of course said no. As a result I've replaced the missing towels with less expensive towels. At check-out, I now make a point of checking for missing items, including towels.
It would be great if Airbnb devised a system, which alerts hosts to guests who have been accused of stealing on more than one occasion. Perhaps a star rating for honesty?
